Themes in Earth Science
Atmospheric Processes and the Water Cycle
(Earth and Space Science Unifying Concept A)
Earth systems have internal and external sources of energy, both
of which create heat. Driven by sunlight and Earth's internal heat,
a variety of cycles connect and continually circulate energy and
material through the components of the earth systems.

Solar System and Universe (Earth and Space
Science Unifying Concept B)
The universe is a dynamic system of matter and energy. The universe
is extremely large and massive with its components separated by
vast distances. Tools of technology will continue to aid in the
investigation of the components, origins, processes and age of the
universe. Earth is one part in our solar system, which is within
the Milky Way galaxy. The Sun is the energy-producing star for our
solar system. Most objects in our solar system are in predictable
motion, resulting in phenomena such as day/night, year, phases of
the moon, tides, and eclipses.

Earth's Composition and Structure (Earth and
Space Science Unifying Concept C)
Earth is composed of materials that move through the biogeochemical
cycles. Earth’s features are shaped by ongoing and dynamic
processes. These processes can be constructive or destructive and
occur over geologic time scales.
