How does the density and temperature change as you move from one layer to another

morpeh [17]3 years ago

The atmosphere has 4 layers: the troposphere that we live in near the surface of the earth; the stratosphere that houses the ozone layer; the mesosphere, a colder and lower density layer with about 0.1% of the atmosphere; and the thermosphere, the top layer, where the air is hot but very thin. The structure of the atmosphere dictates the way the atmosphere behaves and controls how weather develops near the surface of the earth.<span> The temperature decreases with height here just like it does in the troposphere. This layer also contains ratios of nitrogen and oxygen similar to the troposphere, except the concentrations are 1000 times less and there is little water vapor there, so the air is too thin for weather to occur. The thermosphere is the uppermost layer of the atmosphere. In this layer the temperature increases with height because it is being directly heated by the sun.</span>

Gnom [1K]
The minimum length of time that all such victims should be kept under observation in the hospital is 12 - 24 hours for patients who remain comatose after drowning. It is critical since the patient can be diagnosed with hypoxemia and acidosis and their degree is not recognized. They should receive about 100% of oxygen and must be closely monitored through blood gas analysis.

zzz [600]

Answer:

Paleontology seeks to map out how life evolved across geologic time. A substantial hurdle is the difficulty of working out fossil ages. Beds that preserve fossils typically lack the radioactive elements needed for radiometric dating. This technique is our only means of giving rocks greater than about 50 million years old an absolute age, and can be accurate to within 0.5% or better.
