The Earth is a magical place built of four main systems, Atomosphere, Bioshpere, Geosphere, and Hydrosphere.
Examples that you may have experienced:
Atmosphere- Hearing the howling of the wind, smelling various scents as its in the air, feeling the cool breeze when outside
Biosphere- Smelling Plants or flowers, seeing animals, interacting with or talking with other humans
Geosphere- Stepping on  Rocks, seeing mountains, smelling the musty sand
Hydrosphere- Hearing the ocean waves, smelling the salty ocean breeze, seeing lakes or rivers

This photo of when I was standing in Centennial Plaza on campus it had all of the Earth's Systems in one way or another! Three of them were inserted manually by humans but they all still interact the same. You can see the the bright blue sky as the atmosphere. As for the various plants and bird that's for biosphere. There various rock formations but also sand (not pictured) to the right of the fountain and rocks in the fountain itself. Finally you can see a water fountain to represent the hydrosphere. This area is considered Urban.

The Atmosphere is very difficult to photograph but it consists of the Earth's air. For this example is connects to two other systems.
- the biosphere connects by containing oxygen, and carbon dioxide for plants and animals to exchange
- the hydrosphere connects by "giving" the water for evaporation and transportation when it needs to rain or create moisture in the air

In my opinion, the easiest system to identify are all living things such as humans, plants, and animals. This system also interacts with the other three systems.
- the atmosphere allows humans to breathe in the oxygen from the plants
-the hydrosphere is allowing the bird in the photo to drink and stay hydrated as well as having the plant stay alive
-the geosphere is not seen exactly for biosphere but where the plant is planted there is soil and various geographic items inside to keep it alive

The Geosphere is basically the Earth's crust and it's various landmarks like mountains, volcanoes, seafloor but it also includes sand, brick, and other materials of that nature. In this scenario it only connects to two of the systems.
- the biosphere is involved by living in the soil but also having humans and birds in this case walking on the Earth's crust
-the hydrosphere is relevant because it goes throught the geosphere and filters right through the rocks

The Hydrosphere consists of water based systems such as lakes, rivers, groundwater, and oceans. In my case I used a fountain since El Paso has very few water sources that are accessible during this time. In this case the Hyrdosphere intereacts with all three systems!
- the atmosphere connects by having the water evaporate along with condensation when it comes time for rain.
- the geosphere connects by filtering the water into the ground even if not seen here but underneath were the fountain water is rushing over
- the biosphere receives water that is necessary for it to live like the various plants and birds in the area

I drew out a simple drawing and added arrows to the original picture to represent the cycle that I have chosen to represent.
1. (top most arrow- water to sky) Hydrosphere to Atmosphere: The flow of moisture and water into the atmosphere through evaporation.
2. (arrow sky to ground)Atmosphere to Geosphere- The condensation of rain seeps into the pores of the geosphere crust and soil.
3. (arrow ground to plant) Geosphere to Biosphere- The rain that has been collecting in the soil is transferring its energy to the necessities of the life growing like plants.
4.(arrow plant to sky/water)Biosphere to Atmosphere- As the plantation releases it’s oxygen into the atmosphere it allows for the transfer of nitrogen and carbon dioxide from other producers.

In conclusion, I have learned how truly connected we are to the various systems even if we don’t notice them. They each connect in their own special way but without one another they would not be able to thrive and keep this Earth healthy. Before this project I did not actively think about how the atmosphere holds the oxygen and carbon dioxide that we humans exchange with plans. I found it fascinating how it was such a simple task but if it wasn’t there, we wouldn’t be able to live. Another connection I had never thought about was how the hydrosphere is always connected to the geosphere even if its not visible but often times water goes through sand or dirt to get to other locations even if we can’t see it visibly. In my case each of the features are temporary, the plants will soon grow out and have to move or be replaced, the water might not be able to stay there over time eroding the concrete over years, and the rock and sand will soon deteriorate as water or humans walk over it. The atmosphere essentially should be permanent everywhere unless something crazy happens to the Earth but overall everything will always be there but in different ways or move over time. Before this I never thought of this particular site to be connected in so many ways but as you can see, it won’t thrive unless all four systems are there and to me that is a very powerful metaphor for life in general.
