stratospheric circulation is the quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) in the tropical latitudes, which is driven by gravity waves that are convectively generated in the troposphere. The QBO induces a secondary circulation that is important for the global stratospheric transport of tracers, such as ozone or water vapor.

Is there water beneath the crust of earth?

Not liquid water. However some water is trapped in solution in the rocks of earth's mantle.


Where do waterfowls migrate to?

They migrate South because their food source becomes trapped beneath frozen water in the North.


How is water trapped in stratosphere?

Water vapor can be transported into the stratosphere through processes like deep convection or during the formation of high-altitude clouds. Once in the stratosphere, it can be trapped due to temperature inversions that prevent vertical mixing, leading to its accumulation in that layer of the atmosphere.

Why does petroluem rise above trapped water beneath the cap rock?

Petroleum is less dense than water and therefore rises above trapped water beneath the cap rock due to buoyancy forces. Additionally, petroleum migrates through pore spaces in the rock layers until it encounters an impermeable barrier, like the cap rock, where it accumulates. This process is driven by differences in fluid density and pressure gradients within the subsurface reservoir.

What is the process by which heat is trapped beneath the thick clouds of a planet?

the process is called global warming or green house effect where heat is trapped under greenhouse gasses and not allowed to escape into space thus increasing the global heat of the planet this effect can be seen in superlative terms in oue solar system in VENUS
