Explanation:
- . The oceanic lithosphere covers approximately 60% of the Earth's surface. Well-constrained measurements of the seismic velocity structure of the crust and upper mantle beneath the ocean floor are sparse.
- It extends about 8 – 16 kilometers from the earth's surface. The thickness of the layer varies a few km according to latitude and the season of the year. It is thicker near the equator and during the summer, and thinner near the poles and during the winter.
- Groundwater is the largest reservoir of liquid fresh water on Earth and is found in aquifers, porous rock and sediment with water in between
- Ozone. Ozone in the lower part of the atmosphere acts as a greenhouse gas and is a major pollutant. Higher up, in the stratosphere, the ozone layer absorbs solar ultra-violet radiation and affects how much of the Sun's heat is radiated back into space.
