Earth System Science: An Introduction to Our Earth Dr. R. B. Schultz Elmhurst College
When you registered for a geography course, you probably thought you would be getting this… http://www.youtube.com/watch/v/VyzQItUhXyw
Actually, you’ll be learning about this…
… and you’ll learn this…
A New View of Earth ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Past Perceptions  Meet New Issues ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],The Planets and Earth  as a System
Geology  – the study of Earth’s surface and interior. Oceanography  – the study of the Earth’s oceans. Meteorology  – the study of Earth’s atmosphere. Astronomy  – the study of the universe. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The Rise of  Earth System Science ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The Rise of Earth System Science Powerful computers and computer programs called  Geographic   Information   Systems  (GIS) help scientists to interpret great amounts of data, and see how Earth changes over time. What is GIS and how does it tie everything together?
Models ,[object Object],[object Object]
What is a System? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Earth is a Planetary System ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The Earth is a Planetary System
The Earth System’s Four Spheres ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The Earth System’s Four Spheres ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Energy moves back and forth among the spheres within the Earth system.
The Atmosphere Atmo - means vapor. The gaseous envelope surrounding Earth is called the  atmosphere . ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The Geosphere Geo - means Earth. The rocks, the mountains, the beaches, and all other physical features of the Earth (except water), makes up the  geosphere . ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Earth’s Layers
We will study the three (3) rock types composing the earth: 1. Igneous - related to molten rock 2. Sedimentary - layers of eroded particles and sediments 3. Metamorphic - rock resulting from pre-existing igneous or sedimentary  rock that has undergone a change by pressure and/or temperature  changes. The interaction between the three (3) rock types is referred to as the  Rock Cycle . Rocks and the Rock Cycle
The Rock Cycle
The Hydrosphere Hydro - means water. The  hydrosphere  contains all the water in the Earth system. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The Hydrosphere
The Biosphere Bio - means life. All living things on Earth compose the  biosphere . ,[object Object],[object Object]
Interactions Among The Spheres ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The Earth System’s Four Spheres Atmosphere Geosphere Hydrosphere Biosphere
The Scientific Method ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Examples include an architect building a small model, a scientist creating a globe or map to show physical features of the Earth, or a scientist showing how something works (especially when something is too large or too small to observe directly).
  2. Minerals, such as iron and copper, are mined from the geosphere. The stone and concrete used in building materials comes from the geosphere. Things are constantly changing: volcanoes erupt and form new land, mountains are uplifted and then erode, and Earth’s continents are in slow but constant motion.
  3. Most of Earth’s water is salty, only about 3% is fresh water, and about 70% of that is frozen in the form of glacial ice. Fresh water comes from groundwater, lakes, rivers, soil moisture, and water vapor. The water you drank this morning may have irrigated a field last year, flowed through aqueducts during the time of the Roman Empire, or washed around the feet of a dinosaur standing at a river’s edge millions of years ago.
  4. The four spheres: the atmosphere, the geosphere, the hydrosphere, and the biosphere. These interact continuously, each affecting the others.
