Discuss the evolution of
the Earth’s atmosphere
from its initial chemical
composition to its current
chemical makeup.
Including the chemical,
physical, and biological
mechanisms that altered
the early atmosphere.
Students know how the composition of
Earth’s atmosphere has evolved over
geologic time and know the effect of
outgassing, the variations of carbon
dioxide concentration, and the origin of
atmospheric oxygen.
