Yes. It is called adiabatic heating & cooling.
As a general rule in the atmosphere, the higher the elevation the lower the temperature. However, certain atmospheric conditions may produce an 'inversion', where temperature increases with elevation.
Temperature decreases as the elevation increases.
No; temperature is affected by other factors such as elevation and proximity to an ocean.
Ecosystems at high elevations, such as mountainous regions, are often more affected by elevation than by climate. In these areas, factors like altitude influence temperature, oxygen availability, soil composition, and vegetation types more significantly than broader climate patterns. For instance, as elevation increases, temperature typically decreases, leading to distinct changes in plant and animal communities despite similar climate conditions at lower altitudes. This results in unique ecosystems that are specialized to cope with the specific challenges of high elevation.
As the altitude or elevation increases the temperature decreases. The temperature drops about 6.5 degree Celsius for every I km increase.
Temperature is affected by elevation because of the density of the air and oxygen. Therefore, as you go higher there is less air to contain the heat, so its colder higher. For example, when you use a can of compressed air, the can becomes colder as the air is released because there is more room in the can for the molecules to move around without crashing into each other.
Surface elevation can affect water vapor content and temperature by influencing air pressure, which in turn affects the amount of moisture the air can hold (higher elevations typically have lower air pressure and therefore lower water vapor content). Additionally, temperature decreases with higher elevation due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure and the decrease in humidity, leading to cooler conditions at higher elevations.
The relationship between elevation and climate has to do with temperature. The higher up the elevation is the colder the temperature is.

the temperature of a radar is as hot as an elevation angle
The temperature typically decreases by about 3.5F per 1000 feet increase in elevation.
