ES101 Lecture Notes - Lecture 12: Thermosphere, Geothermal Energy
Document Summary
Creation of the earth"s environment: 3 factors that have contributed to the creation of the earth"s environment, we are equal distance from the sun, survivable weather/ temperature. Average temperature of the earth is about 15 o abundant water (life needs water: oxygen rich environment (unique environment, abiotic spheres are linked in a complicated network. Interactions on earths spheres: abiotic spheres are linked in a complicated network, the process of producing products (ex. cars) is a complicated process due to this. Energy: endogenous energy; sun (heat) - solar, exogenous energy; come from within- geothermic.
