Layers of the Earth for Kids
8:00
You will learn about Layers of Earth in this video. Many many years ago, when the earth was formed, it was very hot. With time and because of rains and thunderstorms, its outer portion cooled down, and different life forms started originating on it. This outer cool layer of the earth, on which we live is called the crust. The crust of the earth is covered with different landforms, air, water etc.
The centre of the earth, which is very hot, is called the core. It consists of metals in the molten form.
The core is divided into 2 parts, the liquid outer core and the solid inner core.
The layer between the crust and the core is called mantle. It is very hot, consisting of rocks in molten form.
Sometimes, at some places, these hot melted rocks called lava come out to the surface of the earth. Such places are called volcanoes.

#10 Movile Cave
In 1986, a cave was Discovered near Mangalia, Constanța County, Romania, just off the coast of the Black Sea. The oxygen levels are nearly negligent, but due to chemosynthesis, At least forty-eight species of wildlife has been stored away for possible millions of years. Many of these animals are unique to this specific cave.
The cave is unsafe for humans and most animals. It is completely Void of light and contains toxic gasses that the specialized animals within the cave require to live. Less than 100 people have been allowed in the cave, and to get to the entrance you have to be Lowered 65ft into the ground through a narrow passage.
Microbiologist, Rich Boden was one of the first to enter the cave and one of the few to see the lake below, “The pool of warm, sulphidic water stinks of rotting eggs or burnt rubber when you disturb it as hydrogen sulphide is given off.”
The animals that live in Movile Cave are Generally born without eyes or skin pigment, due to the fact that they live in the darkness and don’t need sight or camouflage.
As for humans, if you go in without a special mask it wouldn’t be long before the lack of oxygen and toxic gasses took their toll. It would Begin with labored breathing and a headache, followed by kidney damage…and the rest, well; no one has ever gotten that far.
#9 Lake Vostok
Out of over 400 lakes in Antarctica only one can be the largest, and the title goes to Lake Vostok. The lake is at the southern Pole of Cold, beneath Russia's Vostok Station. It resides Far beneath the surface of the central East Antarctic Ice Sheet, which is 11,000ft above sea level. This freshwater lake’s surface is about 13,000ft under the surface of the ice, meaning it would be less than 2000ft below sea level.
The lake has Supposedly been untouched for at least 400,000 years, and it wasn’t until 2012 that scientists completed the longest ever ice core that reached 12,400ft and finally pierced through to the surface of the lake. However, as soon as this happened, Water from the lake gushed up the borehole used to extract the water, and mixed with Freon and kerosene that was used to keep the hole from freezing. In 2015, teams tried again and were successful in retrieving a pure sample. Still, Humans have only touched the surface of this lost world and it is believed that new, unseen creatures could dwell in Lake Vostok. The question is…will humans ever reach them?
#8 Son Doong Cave
Son Doong Cave, or known in Vietnam as Hang Sơn Đoòng is a Solutional cave in Phong Nha-Kẻ Bàng National Park, Vietnam. Son Doong Cave is often called the largest cave in the world. It was discovered by a local man named Hồ Khanh in 1991. People from the area knew about the cave, but the steep descent at the entrance as well as the loud sound of the wind and water rushing through the cave, prevented locals from entering. Of course, everyone thought it was spooky! It wasn’t until 2009 that the cave was shared with the world when British Cave Research Association conducted a survey nearby. Unfortunately, their progress was stopped when they ran into a 200 ft calcite wall known as the Great Wall of Vietnam.
In 2013, Some of the largest cave pearls known to man were discovered, some reaching the size of a baseball! Later on, in 2013, the first tourist group explored the cave. The tickets to join this exploration cost a whopping $3,000. Permits are required to access the cave and are given out on a limited basis. Only about 800 are available in 2017 and only through August. During the Fall and Winter months, the water levels are so high that the cave is inaccessible.
#7 Sima Humboldt & Sima Martel
Cerro Sarisariñama is a Tepui or flattop mountain range in Jaua-Sarisariñama National Park. Located in Venezuela. The name of the mountain is derived from the tale of Ye'kuana Indians who live near the mountain. They tell a Tale about an evil spirit living in caves up in the mountain and devouring human flesh with a sound Sari... sari...” (Some sort of windy sound effect?)
On this mountain there are two mysterious sinkholes known as Sima Humboldt & Sima Martel. The larger of the two is Sima Humboldt is over 1000ft deep and over 1000ft wide. The bottom of each hole has its very own individual ecosystem. It was first descended in 1974 and as of today, is exclusive for scientific researchers.

LYRICS:
Earth has four major
Geological Subsystems
I will teach you in this song
I hope you learn and listen
Geosphere, Atmosphere
Hydrosphere and Biosphere
Are four major systems on earth
That balance why we survive here
These systems are all separate
But interact with one another
In so many different ways
in each system you will discover
Lets start with Geosphere
All earths materials and mass
It’s comprised of these parts
That you’re learning in my class
The solid Iron inner core’s
a bit smaller than the moon
The Nickel-Iron Alloy
Outer core is liquid It is true
The Mantle is the layer
between the crust and outer core
mostly made of minerals
and silicate rock lets learn some more
Which brings us to the Crust
In which we all play and live on
Made up of rock and lots of elements
that keep it really strong
Earth has four major
Geological Subsystems
I will teach you in this song
I hope you learn and listen
The Atmosphere’s the next Sphere that
we will look at
It contains earths air And protects us all
now how about that
The atmospheres made up of
five layers now you know
One layer blocks radiation from the sun
it is called the Ozone
Lets move onto the Hydrosphere
Its a major one as well
It includes all forms of earths water
Now isn’t that swell
Oceans, lakes, rivers,
and our water vapor too
Are what make up Hydrosphere
you just learned something new
The Biosphere’s the final
of the four major groups
Including anything thats living
That also includes you
Microbes, animals, plants
birds and insects alike
Are all part of the Biosphere
thats true and alright
Earth has four major
Geological Subsystems
I will teach you in this song
I hope you learn and listen
Here’s one of many examples
of how these Spheres interact
There are so many different ways
they help us live and thats a fact
When Volcanos erupt
from the (Geosphere)
It releases particles and ash
in to the (Atmosphere)
These particles act as the Nuclei
that help form Water drops
Thats the (Hydrosphere) at work
and it never stops
When the rain falls to the earth
This is the (Hydrosphere)
Which stimulates plants to grow
which is the (Biosphere)
The plants create oxygen
thats released to the (Atmosphere)
plants also feed animals and humans
And thats (Biosphere)
Theres so many more examples
You can find on your own
You can research them on your computer
while sitting at home
Earth has four major
Geological Subsystems
I will teach you in this song
I hope you learn and listen
Earth has four major
Geological Subsystems
I will teach you in this song
I hope you learn and listen
What On Earth: Crash Course Kids #10.1
3:43
We've already talked about how the Earth is divided into four spheres (The Hydrosphere, the Biosphere, the Geosphere, and the Atmosphere). But, how do these different sphere interact with each other? In this episode of Crash Course Kids, Sabrina chats with us about how two of the spheres do, in fact, work together.
This first series is based on 5th grade science. We're super excited and hope you enjoy Crash Course Kids!

Earth Today - Scientific Visualizations Of The Planet
6:19
Happy Earth Day! The ability to see Earth from space has forever changed our view of the planet. We are now able to look at the Earth as a whole, and observe how its atmosphere, oceans, land masses, and life interact as global systems. Earth's atmosphere, hydrosphere, geosphere, and biosphere are dynamic, changing on timescales of days, minutes, or even seconds. Monitoring the Earth in near real time allows us to get an up to date picture of conditions on our planet.

The uneven heating also controls weather systems. The heat absorbed by the oceans and carried by its currents is constantly being released into the atmosphere. This heat and moisture drive atmospheric circulation and set weather patterns in motion. The weather patterns then influence vegetation, as well as erosion and sediment transport.
Ever since the first photos were sent back from space, our view of Earth has changed. Remote sensing instruments, such as satellites, allow us to better understand the interrelationships between the different subsystems. For instance, recordings made by remote and Earth-based instruments show that significant surface warming has occurred over the past three decades. Knowing this, scientists are working to determine how this will affect — and already is affecting — the entire Earth system. astronomy

Earth in 100 Million Years: Top 5 Unsolved Mysteries & Facts of our Universe Documentary

Universe Documentary: Top 5 Universe and Earth Strange Ancient facts, findings with some help from a discovery channel and it's mysteries - unsolved: A space documentary for mankind, a universe documentary, earth documentary, and science documentary of discovery into the unknown: If an advanced race of beings came to visit Earth today they'd find nothing more than a bunch of psychotic hairless apes murdering each other over which bit of dirt was theirs.
Narration provided by JaM Advertising New Mexico tasteofjam.com
From a distance, the Earth would look much as it does today, with random splotches of green bursting out from a carpet of ocean blue...To paint a full picture of what the Earth might look like in a hundred million years we have to consider who or what is likely to be living there at the time.As we mentioned in the previous entry, we're almost certain that the previous mass extinction of life on Earth was at least partially caused by the impact of an asteroid or comet in Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula 66 million years ago. I hope those intergalactic explorers have brought their hazmat suits because in 100 million years the Earth might be ever so slightly radioactive, thanks to a local star going supernova or maybe a quasar.Hooray, it's time for a climate change entry. So what's the answer?

Top 10 MYSTERIOUS Events on Earth
12:57
Top 10 Mysterious Events on Earth in history including the unsolved, weirdest, and strangest.
It Begins by Raining Inside) This might be one of the most insane mysteries I’ve heard. While on prison furlough to attend a funeral, Donnie Decker was visiting with friends in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania and suddenly went into a trance. Rain began falling from the ceiling of the room. His friend, not knowing what to make of it, called the landlord over to investigate, but the landlord was equally puzzled, especially when rain started falling up from the floor and even sideways! Infected With the Otherworldly…?) That's what may have happened to some doctors who treated Gloria Ramirez whom checked into the emergency room of the Riverside General Hospital in Riverside, California. Upon attempting to stabilize her and treat her symptoms, medical personnel noticed an oily substance accompanied by a garlic-like smell coming from Gloria's body, and an ammonia-like smell coming from a sample of her blood. A medical resident passed out after viewing a beige-colored substance in the blood sample. HULK SMASH….in Russia?) It's 1959 in the Ural Mountains of the Soviet Union and ten hikers embark on a cross-country trip. One returns early because of illness, and nine are later found dead by rescuers. But, there is something odd: even though there are no signs of struggle, what is alarming is the injuries: fractured bones and even a missing tongue, but no external damage. It's Raining Blobs) In the summer of 1994, Oakville, Washington residents were surprised to see something eerily like it falling from their skies. People noticed that the rain that day was. ….um….different …..in that it came down as clear, gelatinous blobs. Days later, nearly everyone in town was suffering from severe flu-like symptoms, in some cases even lasting for months. Do You Hear the Hum?) If you hear a constant humming noise that you can't explain, you're not alone, it might be The Hum.
People in Taos, New Mexico have contended with a low frequency humming noise they can't explain, other than to say it sounds like a diesel engine. Variations of the hum have been heard all over the world and have even been mapped. Teleporting in 1593) When someone says the word teleportation, we often think of Star Trek beaming Captain Kirk to the Enterprise. Rarely do we consider that teleportation happened in the past. In the FAR past. In 1593, Gil Perez was a soldier in Manila guarding the governor's mansion just after said governor had been assassinated. Maybe it was all the excitement around the event. Maybe it was the heat. Massive UFO Follows Plane) The pilots together had more than 30 years of experience and observation. But they are unprepared for what they see next. A pair of lights appear on the horizon and they report it to Anchorage air traffic control. They approached and then closely followed the Japanese plane, and one of the objects was 2 to 3 times the size of Flight 1628. And Suddenly, A Lake!) Suddenly, in the middle of the hot and dry summer of 2014, some local shepherds came upon a lake about 2.5 acres wide and between 30-40 feet deep. Neutron Stars, Black Holes and...Japanese Trees?) What do neutron stars, black holes, and Japanese cedar trees have to do with each other? Fusa Miyake, a cosmic-ray physicist from Nagoya University in Japan, was studying tree ring data to look for evidence of big, cosmic events using carbon dating techniques. He found one. Approximately 775 AD was a big year for tree growth, largely due to a spike in carbon-14 detected in the rings of Japanese cedar trees. Mile-wide UFOs) This is number one for a simple reason. It really, really scares me. In February 2007, a pilot, his passengers, and two radar ground stations spotted and tracked a mile-wide UFO for 55 minutes. The pilot, Ray Bower, who had over 20 years flying experience, observed the yellow, cigar-shaped craft as he was flying over the Channel Islands toward Germany. Bower said he saw brilliant white light coming from it which turned a more yellow hue as he approached it. It had the appearance of a CD disc looked at edge-on. At first he thought it was only about 10 miles away and about the size of a 737, but later he realized it was 40 miles away and about a mile wide.

Transcription:
Earth systems science is the interdisciplinary study of earth as a complex system, composed of multiple physical and biological process that interact within cycles or spheres to give rise to the overall state of the earth as an entire systems.
Of cause people have been studying earth for a long time, geologies study the formation of rocks, metrologies are interested in the atmosphere and so on,
With all of these different domains supported by the deep understanding of our physical environment that physics has built up over the past few centuries.
But it is only more recently that satellites have started to allow us to see earth as an entirety and human activity has begun to have a significant enough effect to alter earth systems making it increasingly important for us to be able to model and manage them.
From space we can view the net results of earths complex interactions and with high-tech sensors on land and in the ocean, we are getting an clear idea of its overall make up, from this researchers in different domains are discovering how their pieces of the puzzle are related to each other.
Earth systems science then tries to develop models that gives an integrated picture of how all these parts fit together, the first of these models is of earth as a systems in space with inputs and outputs of energy or radiation from the sun, with this energy being the primary factor in driving the dynamics process within the system.
As opposed to focusing on the static properties of earths individual components
Earth systems science instead takes a more dynamic view of the world, studying the ways energy and materials cycle through the different subsystems or what are called -spheres
Earths different sphere are largely defined by the different phases of mater they are composed of thus the atmosphere is composed of gasses, the hydrosphere of liquid water and the lithosphere solid minerals added to this is the biosphere
The sum of all biological material and processes.
Within each sphere a process called a cycles take place, for example in the lithosphere we have the rock cycle driven by the thermal energy within earth's interior that releases minerals through ocean ridges and volcanoes that are weathered as they cycle through earths crust and are eventual subducted returning to their origin
The hydro cycle driven by the thermal energy of the sun, cycles water between the earths surface and atmosphere through the process of evaporation, condensation and precipitation, this process helps to distribute moisture to support ecosystems at a variety of locations
The atmosphere is a layer of gases surrounding the planet that is held in place by gravity, it is the primary vehicle of temperature and climate regulation through the Cycle of carbon in and out of the atmosphere where it functions, through the green house effect to trap the suns heart.
The biosphere is the relatively thin layer of Earth's surface that supports all biological activity on earth. The biosphere is a system also characterized by the continuous cycling of matter and energy in the form of the flow of solar energy and nutrient mineral cycles.
Solar energy flows through the biosphere along a unidirectional path, as the suns energy is inputted through plant photosynthesis and process up through what are called trophic levels form primary producers to herbivores and on to predators and apex predators.
Along side the flow of energy through food webs it the cycling of mineral nutrients the core substances required for the construction of biological materials and processes, carbon, water, oxygen, nitrogen have been continuously cycled through the biosphere from one generation to the next for billions of years
These different spheres interact to create a unique state or ecosystem, an ecosystems is the combination of a community of biological organism and a particular physical environment with which they interact...
