What happens to the temperature as you increase in altitude in each layer of the atmosphere?

The temperature in the atmosphere decreases as altitude increases. The reason for this is there is less warmth from the surface of the earth reaching the higher altitudes because there are fewer particles of the atmosphere to transfer the heat. The temperature begins to increase, however, around 100km in altitude because of the heat and radiation from the sun.

∙ 10y agoIt's different in every layer. Our layer, the Troposphere, has mild weather. The next layer, the Stratosphere, Is cold to hot. The Mesosphere, hot to cold. And finally, the Thermosphere. It's like the Stratosphere, cold to hot.

What happens to the temperature as the height of the atmosphere increase?
It become colder
When you move upward in the atmosphere what happens to the temperature?
When you move upward in the atmosphere the temperature get lowered.
What happens as a result of the sun evaporating water from an ocean or lake?
The density of water increase, also the humidity of the atmosphere; the temperature decrease.
When carbon dioxide levels increase in the atmosphere what happens to global temperatures?
When greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide increase in the atmosphere then the temperature rises. Greenhouse gases capture heat rising from the surface of the earth and prevent it escaping to space.
What happens to the temperature increase the number of particles what happens to the pressure?
Increasing the temperature the number of particles remain constant and the pressure increase.
What happens to the temperature in the mesosphere?
the temperature decreases as you increase in altitude.
What happens to the temperature in the mesosphere as the altitude increase?
The temperature decreases
What happens to the density of the atmosphere as you go up higher?
temperature and altitude
What happens to the temperature in the atmosphere as you move up into altitude?
It gives you stiff nipples.
What happens to temperature with little ozone?
Ozone is a greenhouse gas. Increase in amount of ozone will increase the temperature of the atmosphere.
What happens to the temperature as the height of the atmosphere increase?
It become colder
What happens to the temperature as you increase in altitude in the troposphere?
It keeps getting colder. (to about -70 degrees F).
Why evaporation happens at the surface?
When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere. Evaporation (not vaporization) occur at any temperature; a higher temperature increase the rate of evaporation. The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase and some molecules at the surface can escape in the atmosphere.
