It depends on who you ask. Biologists will likely answer that the atmosphere is a closed system because it is mostly self-contained. Forces like solar winds, magnetic storms, and electromagnetic radiation, though, constantly bombard, penetrate, and interact with the atmosphere. So it is not, realistically, a closed system.

An open ventilation system simply lets the crankcase fumes vent into the atmosphere. A closed system reburns the crankcase fumes via the pcv valve.
What is the difference between a closed hydraulic system and an open hydraulic system?
A system which can exchange mass as well as matter with the surroundings is called anopen system.Example:- Heating of CaCo3 in an open bulb.A system which can exchange energy but not matter is called a closed system.Example:- Calcination of CaCo3 in a sealed bulb.
