Earth’s Atmospherehttp://www.sepuplhs.org/middle/iaes/students/simulations/sepup_atmosphere.html Gases in atmosphere: • Nitrogen (78%) • Oxygen (21%) • Carbon dioxide, water vapor and argon (1%) Layers of atmosphere: • Exosphere (120 km+) merge to space • Thermosphere (80 – 120 km) space shuttle • Mesosphere (50 – 80 km) meteors burn up • Stratosphere (12 – 50 km) ozone absorbs some UV radiation from sun • Troposphere (0 -12 km) most weather and aircraft
Prevailing winds When the winds blow from one direction more than from any other and this pattern can influence global climates.
