List the layers of the atmosphere in order moving up from earths surface?

The layers of the atmosphere, in order from Earth's surface moving upwards, are the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere.


What is the atmospheric layers in order from farthest away from the earths surface to the closest to the earths surface?

The atmospheric layers in order from farthest away from the Earth's surface to the closest are the exosphere, thermosphere, mesosphere, stratosphere, and troposphere. Each layer has its own characteristics and plays a role in Earth's climate and weather patterns.


When the pressure of rock layers pressing on an aquifer from water up to the earths surface what is it called?

When the pressure of rock layers pushes water from an aquifer up to the Earth's surface, it is called artesian flow. This natural process occurs when there is enough pressure in the aquifer to force the water upward through a well or borehole without the need for a pump.


What minerals are being searched for when strip mining?

Minerals commonly searched for during strip mining include coal, limestone, phosphate, and oil sands. These minerals are often found in layers close to the surface, making them accessible through the process of removing overlying layers of soil and rock.


Minerals move downward through soils in a process called what?

Minerals move downward through soils in a process called leaching. This occurs when water carries the minerals down through the soil layers, eventually reaching the groundwater or being deposited in lower layers of soil.
