The American Geophysical Union (AGU) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization of geophysicists, consisting of over 62,000 members from 144 countries.

AGU's activities are focused on the organization and dissemination of scientific information in the interdisciplinary and international field of geophysics.

The geophysical sciences involve four fundamental areas: atmospheric and ocean sciences; solid-Earth sciences; hydrologic sciences; and space sciences.

The organization's headquarters is located on Florida Avenue in Washington, D.C.

Science News is an American bi-weekly magazine devoted to short articles about new scientific and technical developments, typically gleaned from recent scientific and technical journals.

Science News has been published since 1922 by Society for Science & the Public, a non-profit organization founded by E.

W.

Scripps in 1920.

American chemist Edwin Slosson served as the publication's first editor.

From 1922 to 1966, it was called Science News Letter.

The title was changed to Science News with the March 12, 1966 issue (vol.

An atmosphere is a layer of gases surrounding a planet or other material body, that is held in place by the gravity of that body.

An atmosphere is more likely to be retained if the gravity it is subject to is high and the temperature of the atmosphere is low.

Geology (from the Ancient Greek γῆ, gē, i.e. "earth" and -λoγία, -logia, i.e. "study of, discourse") is an earth science concerned with the solid Earth, the rocks of which it is composed, and the processes by which they change over time.

Geology can also refer generally to the study of the solid features of any terrestrial planet (such as the geology of the Moon or Mars).
