Cryosphere
In this Class 9 Science topic, students explore the cryosphere—the frozen parts of Earth, including glaciers, ice sheets, sea ice, snow cover, and permafrost. They learn how frozen water stores and transfers energy and matter, reflects sunlight through albedo, and interacts with the atmosphere, oceans, land, and living organisms. The topic also explains melting, freezing, the water cycle, sea-level change, habitats, and climate feedbacks, showing why the cryosphere is an important part of Earth as a system.
