Four Main Layers: Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere
Four Minor Layers: Ozonosphere, Ionosphere, Exosphere, Magnetosphere
Ionosphere and Exosphere are part of the Thermosphere
Troposphere is most important because we live in it!
Ozonosphere in the Stratosphere (protects from radiation) AND
Mesosphere (protects us from meteors)
6. The magnetosphere acts like a giant magnet and it attracts small particles
from the sun (keeps us safe)
7. Heat is transferred through the troposphere by CONVECTION CURRENTS
8. A Cirrus cloud indicates the top of the troposphere
9. The Jet Stream runs along the top of the troposphere
10. The tropopause attaches itself to the Jetstream
