atmosphere 1 - Coggle Diagram

- - - - -CO2: vehicles, fossil fuels, deforestation
      - -CH4: beef agriculture, landfill, formation of fossil fuels
      - -NOXs: from car engine synthesis of O and N, power stations
      - -CFCs: aerosols, propellants, fire extinguishers, plastics and solvents
      - -tropospheric ozone: sunlight + NO -> O3 from engines and factories
- - - - -C, O, N+H needed four biological molecules (carbohydrates and lipids)
      - -extracted as N2, CO2, O2, H2O
    - - -much of solar wind prevented from reaching Earth
      - -UV prevented by forms of oxygen
      - -oxygen present as monotonic O, diatomic O2, triatomic 03
    - - -most visible light absorbed as heat and re-emitted as IR
      - -natural gases absorb IR and convert it to heat
    - - -solar energy absorbed mostly by tropics the warm surface is then distributed by currents (wind and ocean)
    - - -wind creates currents for distributes heat from warmer to colder areas
    - - -carried by the wind and atmosphere effects amount of liquid water
    - - -natural grasses for fuel
      - -some noble gases
- - - - -wind causes H2O to move
      - -evaporating by warming causes H2O to flow in and replace lost water
      - -heating /cooling changes the density of the surface water that affects which surface water sinks
