Layers of earth -geology
what is geology
the study of planet earth including its composition and struction
evaportaion
solar engrey heats and changes water from liquid to gas vapor
Stratus cloud
Flat low clouds that cover much of the sky
Air mass
Large body of air that moves with the wind circulation and has unique temperature moisture content based on where it originated
Troposphere
The layer closest to the earth has the most water vapor formed in clouds
what is catastrophism
changes in the earth crust are due to sudden violent and unusual events
Water cycle
The circular process of water morris across the Earth's surface and atmosphere evaporation
Nimbistratus
Halo stratus cloud that produces a steady widespread rain or snow
Warm air mass
A warm body of air with a hyper fresh air mass originating from the equator
Stratosphere
Where sunlight reacts with oxygen to create the ozone layer and keep the Earth
what is core
the mantel center of earth
Transpiration
Liquid water that evaporates a gas vaperr from plant leaves
Cumulus cloud
Fluffy white cotton balls clouds with flat bottoms seen on sunny days
Cold front
When a cold air mass overtakes a warm air mass and crates into strong winds
Mesosphere
The thinnest layer of the air where are meteors
the thin rocky outer layer of the earth
Precipitation
Heavy water droplets in clouds that fall into the ground
Cumulonimbus cloud
Dark tall towering clouds that produce heavy rain storms with thunder and lightning
Warm front
Open a warm air mass overtakes a cold air mass encouraged to clear skies warm temperature
Thermosphere
The layer with fast-moving gas particles from the solar wind
what is graduslism
changes on earths crust due to gradual practice changes over long periods of time
Erision
The weathering of rock and soil into sediment by exposure to what wind and water
Cirrus cloud
Then white wispy clouds with their Feathering appearance found very high in the sky on a clear sunny day
Stationary front
When cold air mass and warm air mass for an unmoving boundary resolved and Cloud over several days
Exosphere
The farthest layer of the atmosphere were Earth before reaching to outer space
