1. THERE ARE 5 LAYERS
2. ATMOSPHERE: PROTECTS THE EARTH / IS MADE OF GASSES
3. TROPOSPHERE STRATOSPHERE MESOSPHERE THERMOSPHERE EXOSPHERE
3.1. TROPOSPHERE = ATMOSPHERIC PHENOMENA
3.1.1. 1.AIR TEMPERATURE 2. WATER VAPOUR 3. WIND
3.1.1.1. 1. LOW AIR TEMP = COLD HIGH AIR TEMP = HOT
3.1.1.2. 2. CAUSES PRECIPITATION RAIN HAIL SNOW
3.1.1.3. 3. THE MOVEMENT OF AIR BREEZE GALE HURRICANE
3.2. STRATOSPHERE = OZONE LAYER
3.2.1. OZONE LAYER - PROTECTS US FROM THE SUN'S HARMFUL RAYS
3.3. MESOSPHERE = COLDEST LAYER
3.4. THERMOSPHERE = AURORA BOREALIS
