Biosphere- this is a special shell of the Earth, containing the totality of organisms and that part of the planet that is in continuous exchange with these organisms.

The biosphere is a global ecosystem. As noted earlier, the biosphere is divided into geobiosphere, hydrobiosphere and aerobiosphere. The geobiosphere has divisions in accordance with the main environmental factors: terrabiosphere and lithobiosphere - within the geobiosphere, marinobiosphere (oceanobiosphere) and aquabiosphere - as part of the hydrobiosphere. These formations are called sub-spheres.

Structure of the biosphere:

The area in which living organisms regularly meet is called the eubiosphere (actually the biosphere). The total thickness of the eubiosphere is ≈ 12-17 km.

Aerobiosphere- includes the lower part of the atmosphere. The aerobiosphere includes:

a) tropobiosphere - up to a height of 6...7 km;

b) altobiosphere - to the lower boundary ozone shield(20...25 km).

The ozone layer is a layer of the atmosphere with a high content of ozone. The ozone screen absorbs the harsh ultraviolet radiation of the Sun, which has a detrimental effect on all living organisms. In recent decades, "ozone holes" have been observed in the polar regions - areas with a low ozone content.

hydrobiosphere- includes the entire hydrosphere. The lower boundary of the hydrobiosphere is ≈ 6...7 km, in some cases - up to 11 km. The hydrobiosphere includes:

a) aquabiosphere - rivers, lakes and other fresh waters;

b) marinobiosphere - seas and oceans.

In the hydrobiosphere, there are also layers associated with the intensity of light. Three layers are distinguished: the photosphere is relatively brightly lit, the disphotosphere is always very twilight (up to 1% of solar insolation), the aphotosphere is absolute darkness, where photosynthesis is impossible.

Terrabiosphere- land surface. The terrabiosphere includes:

a) phytosphere - the habitat of terrestrial plants;

b) pedosphere - a thin layer of soil.

Lithobiosphere. The lower boundary of the lithobiosphere is ≈ 2...3 km (rarely up to 5...6 km) on land and ≈ 1...2 km below the ocean floor. Living organisms in the composition of the lithobiosphere are rare, however, sedimentary rocks in the composition of the biosphere arose under the influence of the vital activity of organisms.

The biosphere, covering the entire globe, has certain boundaries. They are determined by the distribution of living matter. In Antarctica, at an altitude of 2000 m above sea level, lichens are found, in the Dead Sea, where the salt concentration reaches 270-300 g / l, there are living organisms in the form of bacteria. In the equatorial, tropical and temperate latitudes, life is ubiquitous, because there are the most favorable conditions. We can assume that life exists throughout the globe, although the concentration and diversity of living matter in different territories is not the same.

The upper limit of the spread of life is determined mainly not by low temperature, but by the destructive effect of cosmic radiation, primarily UV radiation. Plant pollen, spores of fungi, mosses, ferns and lichens and microorganisms are constantly present in the air, but their number decreases with height. Hard ultraviolet radiation with a wavelength of 200-320 nm, absorbed by the ozone screen, kills all life.

The lower limit is determined by the depth of distribution of microorganisms in the earth's crust. Many scientists believe that it is determined by the 100 °C isotherm. Academician I. A. Shilov writes: “The burrows and passages of rodents, some insects and worms penetrate the soil to a depth usually no more than 5-7 m. This practically limits the spread of life in the Earth’s stone shell - the lithosphere.” The upper boundary of the biosphere is limited by such a factor as UV radiation.

Thus, the biosphere extends into hydrosphere, upper layers lithosphere and lower layers atmosphere. The shell of the planet at the boundary of the tropo-, hydro- and lithospheres is called biogeosphere . It contains the highest concentration of living matter. Here the most favorable living conditions - temperature, humidity, oxygen content and chemical elements necessary for the nutrition of organisms, are optimal. In the rest of the biosphere, living matter is in a rarefied state.

Hydrosphere - this is the water shell of the Earth, the totality of oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, reservoirs, groundwater, glaciers and snow cover. Often, the hydrosphere includes atmospheric water and water contained in living organisms. In our opinion, the inclusion of atmospheric water in the hydrosphere does not contradict the definition of the biosphere, since living organisms can exist in it. Water in living organisms is an integral part of the organisms themselves, and not the area of ​​their existence, therefore there are no sufficient grounds to include it in the hydrosphere. It should also be noted that there is no clear boundary between the hydrosphere, lithosphere and troposphere, since in the waters of rivers, for example, there are always suspended solid particles and air bubbles in which microorganisms live.

The main volume of water, which is 1.4610 9 km 3 , is concentrated in the World Ocean. This is 94% of the total volume of the hydrosphere. The World Ocean occupies most of the Earth's surface - 70.8%. The remaining 6% of the volume of the hydrosphere is distributed as follows: groundwater - about 4%, ice and snow cover - about 1.6%, the rest - the waters of lakes, rivers, reservoirs, swamps, soils and water vapor in the atmosphere.

The water of the World Ocean is a solution of salts with an average concentration of 35 g/l. Basically it is sodium chloride (77.7%). The surface waters of land (lakes, rivers, etc.) are rather heterogeneous in their chemical composition. At the same time, the vast majority of these waters are fresh with a salt concentration of up to 0.5 g/l. It is obvious that fresh water as a habitat for living organisms differs significantly from sea water, so plants and animals that can live in both fresh and sea water are extremely rare.

In the hydrosphere they secrete euphotic and aphotic zones. Euphotic zone- the production zone, as it receives enough solar energy for photosynthesis. The depth (about 200 m) in which the illumination is 1% of the illumination on the surface is taken as the lower boundary of this zone. Below 200 m is located aphotic zone,in which sunlight practically does not penetrate, and photosynthesis does not occur there.

Tolithosphererefer to the outer solid layer of the Earth, including the earth's crust and the upper part of the earth's mantle. The thickness of the lithospheric layer varies from several kilometers under the rift valleys of the mid-ocean ridges to 100 km under the periphery of the oceans. On land, it reaches 300-350 km. In the lithosphere, with a change in depth, there is a change in temperature. In this case, three temperature zones are distinguished: variable temperatures, constant temperatures and increasing temperatures.

In the zone of variable temperatures, the range of fluctuations largely depends on the climate of the area. Daily fluctuations are practically not recorded already at a depth of 1.5 m, and annual fluctuations - at depths of 20-30 m. Approximately at a depth of 30-40 m there is a zone of constant temperature. In this zone, the temperature corresponds to the average annual temperature of the area. Below is a zone of increasing temperatures.

The lower boundary of the biosphere descends 2–3 km from the surface on land and 1–2 km below the ocean floor. The lower limit of the spread of life is associated with an increase in temperature in the bowels of the earth. The limiting temperature for the existence of most living organisms is about 80–100 ◦ C; temperatures above this interval are more likely to be survival limits (extreme conditions) than normal life activity.

Lithospheric organisms are concentrated mainly in the soil layer, the depth of which is several meters. The chemical composition of soils is mainly inherited from the parent rocks, so different land areas are characterized by the predominance of some elements and the lack of others.

The soil is a component of the biosphere and performs a number of important functions in it. The first and most important function is to ensure the existence of life on Earth, since all living organisms (some directly and others indirectly) receive mineral nutrients and water through the soil to create their biomass. Thus, soils provide the plant community with nutrients necessary for life (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, water, etc.), and the organic matter created by plants serves as food for other organisms. Cultivated soils provide 95-97% of food resources for the world's population. The second function is to ensure the constant interaction of large geological and small biological cycles of substances, and the soil here acts as an important link, since the cycles of biogenic elements (carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, etc.) close on the soil. Other global soil functions include regulation of the chemical composition of the atmosphere and hydrosphere; regulation of biospheric processes of distribution of living organisms on land; accumulation of active organic matter and associated chemical energy on the earth's surface.

Atmosphere- this is the air shell of our planet, the gaseous habitat of living matter. Atmospheric air is a source of respiration for almost all living organisms, a raw material for the processes of combustion, decomposition and synthesis of chemical compounds. Gaseous wastes of vital activity of organisms and anthropogenic devices and systems (factories, vehicles, etc.) are thrown here. The atmosphere protects living organisms from the harmful effects of solar short-wave ultraviolet radiation and other hard cosmic radiation. Biogenic and abiogenic cycles of substances pass through the atmosphere. In the atmosphere, in addition to gases, there are particles of dust and water that are in suspension.

Through the atmosphere, the Earth exchanges matter and energy with the Cosmos. Cosmic dust and meteorites fall on the Earth, gases such as helium and hydrogen go into space. The atmosphere is permeated through with powerful solar radiation, while the most dangerous part of the solar radiation spectrum for living organisms (hard X-ray and ultraviolet) is absorbed by the ozone layer located in the stratosphere at an altitude of 22-24 km. Carbon dioxide, water vapor, ozone and other gases of the atmosphere delay the infrared radiation of the Earth, increasing the warming effect of the Earth's air cover and protecting the biosphere from the cold of outer space, that is, the atmosphere ensures the thermal balance of the biosphere. Without an atmosphere, life on Earth would be impossible. Thus, the atmosphere performs an ecological protective function, protecting the biosphere from harsh solar radiation and the absolute cold of the Cosmos, creating conditions suitable for life.

Troposphere called a layer of the atmosphere with a height of about 8-18 km, in which more than 80% of the total air mass is concentrated and basically all weather phenomena occur. The height of the troposphere depends on the intensity of ascending and descending air flows. The intensity is determined by the heating of the earth's surface, therefore, at the equator, the troposphere extends to a height of 16-18 km, in temperate latitudes - up to 10-12 km, and at the poles - up to 8 km.

Since the 1920s, Vernadsky has been writing about the impact on the development of earthly processes, not just wildlife, but purposeful human activity. Ever since the 19th century, technological progress has made it possible to transform the Earth. And not always to her advantage. Man's activity, imperceptibly for himself, gradually turned into a powerful geological force. And Vernadsky introduces the concept noosphere.

IN AND. Vernadsky used the concept of "noosphere" in different senses:

    as the state of the planet when man becomes a transforming geological force;

    as an area of ​​active manifestation of scientific thought;

    as the main factor in the qualitative restructuring of the biosphere.

Noosphere(from the Greek noos - mind) is the modern biosphere, of which humanity is a part. “Humanity, taken as a whole,” wrote Vernadsky, “becomes a powerful geological force. And before him, before his thought and work, the question of restructuring the biosphere in the interests of free-thinking humanity as a whole becomes. This is a new state of the biosphere, to which we, without noticing This, we are approaching, is the noosphere. A person can and must rebuild the area of ​​his life with his work and thought, rebuild in a radical way in comparison with what was before. "
