Nature, also called "material world", "material universe", "natural world", or "natural universe", refers to the phenomena of the physical world. Nature includes all matter and energy in its essential form. The English word derives from a Latin term, natura. Natura is related to the Latin words relating to "birth", while physis relates to Greek words for "growth". The concept of nature as a whole, the cosmos, is a later development that is particularly strong in modern science.
In scale, "nature" is now understood to include everything from the universal to the subatomic. This includes all things animal, plant, and mineral; all natural resources and events (hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes). It also includes the behaviour of living animals, and processes associated with inanimate objects - the "way" that particular types of things change.

Indian Ocean (2004) - Along the India Ocean as everywhere on our planet, the earth's atmosphere acts as a big lens, bending the sun's rays substantially when the sun is near the horizon. This effect changes with air pressure and temperature, but on average the sun appears lower in the sky by 35 minutes of arc than it would without the atmosphere's effect.
