I will group you into four groups.


This column will be the group 1, this
will be the group 2, group 3, and
group 4. In your own group discuss
the layers of the atmosphere and
answer the guide questions. I will
give you 5 minutes to discuss each
layer and its characteristics. After
the small group discussion, you will
paste the correct answer about each
layer during the question-and-
answer portion regarding to the
information about the layers of the
atmosphere that I gave on your
groups. For every correct answer
there is an equivalent point.
The leaders will be the one to
communicate and discuss each layer
of the atmosphere with his/her
groupmates.

Small Group Discussion

A. Troposphere
It starts at the Earth’s surface and extends 8 km to 14.5 km high. About
75 % of the gases in the atmosphere can be found in this layer. As altitude
increases, the temperature in the troposphere decreases. The main reason
why temperature decreases with altitude in the troposphere is that it is
heated from below. The estimated temperature decreases 6.5 to -60℃. This
is where our weather and climate take place, because almost all of the
atmosphere's water is found in this layer.

B. Stratosphere
The estimated distance from the ground is 50 km and the
temperature increases from an average -51℃ to -25℃. In this layer,
temperature increases as the altitude increases. This is due to the ozone
layer that is found in the stratosphere. The ozone layer is found here that
filters the Sun’s UV rays to allow life to survive on Earth. Jets fly in this
layer to help to avoid turbulence of weather.

C. Mesosphere (middle)
50-90 km in height. In this layer, temperature decreases as altitude
increases. It has no gases which can absorb UV rays from the sun. It is the
coldest layer in the atmosphere with extreme temperatures as low as -90℃.
Also has a thin layer of air which is still enough to decelerate meteors
rushing towards Earth. This thin layer of air adds friction to meteoroids
which becomes meteors producing a burning tail and seen as shooting
stars.
D. Thermosphere (ionosphere)
The estimated distance is 690 km and the temperature can go beyond
1,000 ℃. This increase in temperature is due to the absorption of intense
solar radiation by the limited number of remaining molecular oxygen. A
remarkable feature that is happening in this layer is the occurrence of
Auroras. Auroras occur when charged particles collide with gases in
Earth's upper atmosphere. Those collisions produce tiny flashes that fill
the sky with colorful light. An Aurora is a display of glows in the night sky
within the polar areas. The auroras (Aurora borealis in the North and Aurora australis in the
South.)

E. Exosphere
The outermost layer of the atmosphere. It is more than 10, 000 km from
the surface. The temperature can go beyond 1700 ℃. In this layer,
temperature increases as altitude increases. To its nature, the air here is very
thin. Satellites are stationed in this area.
