the impact of the suns energy
waste heat from fossil fuel consumption (0.007%)
the influence of sun on the earth can be separated into the examination of how four different spheres are impacted:
atmospheres the processes above the earth
hydrosphere the processes involved with the water
lithosphere the processes within the rock structure
biosphere the interaction of living plants and animals
The influences of the sun on these spheres through the following processes will result in further impacts on each of the other spheres:
atmosphere- winds creation of weather systems
hydrosphere- precipitation increase in the amount of water torivers
lithosphere- heat rocks subjected to mechanical weathering
biosphere- photosynthesis plant growth
