Earth’s Dynamic Systems: Atmosphere, Tectonics, and Life’s Origins
The Earth: Atmospheric Changes
Some minor gases control climate and life. For example, water vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane are greenhouse gases, transparent to visible radiation from the sun but opaque to infrared. These gases trap heat emitted from the Earth, raising the Earth’s surface temperature over 30ºC. Without them, half of the atmosphere’s temperature would be -18ºC.
- Main components of the atmosphere: Nitrogen 78.1%, Oxygen 20.9%, and Argon 1%.
