2 ημέρες πριν · Scientists from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute challenge the previous view of a methane-rich ancient atmosphere and suggest a more oxygen-rich one based on zircon evidence. The findings have implications for the origins of life on Earth and elsewhere in the universe.
12 Φεβ 1993 · Ideas about atmospheric composition and climate on the early Earth have evolved considerably over the last 30 years, but many uncertainties still remain. It is generally agreed that the atmosphere contained little or no free oxygen initially and that oxygen concentrations increased markedly near 2.0 billion years ago, but the precise timing of ...
Earth’s original atmosphere was rich in methane, ammonia, water vapour, and the noble gas neon, but it lacked free oxygen. It is likely that hundreds of millions of years separated the first biological production of oxygen by unicellular organisms and its eventual accumulation in the atmosphere.
27 Απρ 2021 · Unlocking the secrets of Earth’s early atmosphere. By. Liz Thompson. |. April 27, 2021. Research partly conducted at the Advanced Photon Source helped scientists discover the composition of Earth’s first atmosphere. What they found raises questions about the origin of life on Earth.
Learn how Earth formed an atmosphere mainly from volcanic gases 4.6 billion years ago. Find out how it changed over time and what it is like today.
11 Σεπ 2024 · Earth’s original atmosphere was probably just hydrogen and helium, because these were the main gases in the dusty, gassy disk around the Sun from which the planets formed. The Earth and its atmosphere were very hot. Molecules of hydrogen and helium move really fast, especially when warm.
18 Μαΐ 2017 · Nature Communications - The composition of the early Earth’s atmosphere remains unclear. Here, the authors using fluid inclusions trapped within quartz crystals show that at 3.3 Ga the...
