Conservation Tillage – the practice of leaving harvested plant materials on the soil surface to reduce runoff and soil erosion; Crop Nutrient Management – managing all nutrient inputs helps ensure that nutrients are available to meet crop needs while reducing nutrient runoff; Pest Management –...

Earth has been divided by ecologists into four areas: the hydrosphere, the lithosphere, the atmosphere, and the biosphere. The hydrosphere refers to water on the planet, the lithosphere consists of soil and rocks, the atmosphere is the air, and the biosphere refers to all of...

In the Atmosphere, there are many chemical compounds that are described as greenhouse gases due to their characteristics. These gases allow solar radiation (shortwave radiation) to penetrate freely through the Earth’s atmosphere thereby heating the land surface and oceans. When the earth’s surface is heated...

Earth’s magnetic field, albeit generated approximately 2,000 miles below the surface, protects the planet’s atmosphere from space radiation and solar wind. It is essential, then, for life. The strength of the magnetic field, though, is rapidly decreasing; in the past 300 years alone, its strength...
