  4. Geosphere Geosphere refers to the land content of the earth. It is the rigid outermost shell of a rocky planet. Vegetation and soils at the land surface determine how energy received from the Sun is returned to the atmosphere. The texture of the land surface ( its roughness) influences the atmosphere dynamically as winds blow over the land's surface. Weather is the fluctuating state of the atmosphere around us, characterized by temperature, wind, precipitation, clouds and other weather elements. Climate refers to the average weather and its variability over a certain time-span and a specified area.

  5. 2. 3. 4. 1. 5. 1.Label the numbered areas of the diagram using the vocabulary terms listed above. 2. Explain how two of the spheres interaction with each other.

  6.
