Abstract

The Earth’s geosphere—inclusive of land, oceans, atmosphere, and cryosphere—has evolved in a way that has made it hospitable for the present forms of life in the biosphere. The biosphere, in turn, plays a key role in the geosphere in terms of helping develop the composition of the atmosphere.
