Aerosols


Along with the Ozones there are the mother nature mixture of what makes the Earth as it is. Aerosols are a minute particles suspended in the atmosphere. Its source is a mixer of sea salt, primary particulate inorganic emissions ( like gas, yucky stuff that humans made), Primary particulat organic emissions (its from the Earth ) and water vapo. It is sort of like a mist that hangs above a city , but it doesn't have the same effect as the ozones.

It doesn't effect Earth's climate in a bad way. Instead Aerosols cooldown the  Earth than warming the atmosphere as like ozones does. Making like effect or destory Earth's people resources and other items not get destoryed.

Ozone :o

             Our planet mother Earth, is created with many things to make things as what we are to feed us , create us , and provide for us, but like anything else in the universe there are bad things that come to haunt us. Earth haves those things called the ozone layers. At first they were there to protect us, but with human and technology it is doing the opposite and the layer that suppose to protecting us from the U.V.A rays is slowly disappearing, but there is still hope. The people of Earth are changing their ways making life and things better  for Earth to continue protecting.  Like anything we must understand what is our main probkem now which is  ground  level which will be called the surface Ozone.

Surface Ozone is not emitted to the air directly, but is created by chemical reactions between oxides, nitrogen and  volatile organic compounds in the presence of sunlight.  It forms by the emission from industrial facilities  and electric utilities, motor vehicle exhaust, gasoline vapors, and chemical solvents.

It screens out  the most of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays, but also irritates  the respiratory tact and eyes. The result in chest tightness, coughing and wheezing to humans. For the ecosystem, it creates a loss of species diversity and changes to habitat quality, water and nutrient cycles.

BUT it does creates asthma and frequently asthma attack. Creates chest pain, coughing, throat irritation and congestion. It can worsen bronchitis, emphysema, and asthma. It can also reduce lung function and inflame the linings of the lungs.

tree experiment procedure

Procedure
1. We practice our calulations a the sheet Mr. Sharpe gaves us 
2. Downloaded a measuring app to our phones that will help with the tree height to its feet 

3. we went out outside and pratice our data on to a lamp post

4.Label the trees that we were going to measure and on to the next day

5. we went outside with our data sheet, measurement app and statred measuring the trees and get our calulations. 

co-workers tree experiment

Thoughts of my teammates for tree experiment

The tree experiment was a interesting experiment to do with. My co -workers in the other hand i have another story. Through they did do the work they always talked and had their were always texting it was hard to have work to be done on time. Didn't really enjoy working with my co-workers with the tree experiment, but hell they still did the work it was just a day late so what i am complaining about.
