Very cold region that lies above the ozone rich layer of stratosphere?
42. ---- The ozone layer is located in the bottom of the stratosphere, so just above the ozone layer is still stratosphere. See the link below to the entry at Wikipedia for the stratosphere, that shows the various layers above the stratosphere (mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere)
Is the stratosphere hot or cold?
Absorption of ultraviolet radiation by ozone.
There is little vertical air movement in the because of the cold heavy air at the bottom of the layer?
stratosphere.
A large temperature lapse rate would occur in a layer with?
a) uniformly cold temperatures throughout b) cold air above, warm air below c) warm air above, cold air below d) uniformly warm temperatures throughout
What is generally true about the stratosphere?
The stratosphere is very cold and dry.

Is the stratosphere hot or cold?
Absorption of ultraviolet radiation by ozone.
Why does the ozone layer dissolve above antarctica?
The ozone layer dissolves above Antarctica. It is because of cold temperature there.
Is the temperature range of stratosphere?
the stratosphere is cold except in it's upper region where the ozone is located
What is the stratosphere's temperature range?
the stratosphere is cold except in it's upper region where the ozone is located
How does the temperature change as you go higher into the sky?
The layers Earth's Atmosphere from closest to farthest: Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere, Exosphere. (It is often argued whether the Exosphere is actually part of the atmosphere or not. The amount of scientists who believe and don't is about 50-50.)As you ascend into the sky, the atmospheric temperature follows a cold-hot pattern.The temperature in the Troposphere is cooler as you go up. Above the Troposphere is the Stratosphere. The Stratosphere is significantly warmer and more dry than the Troposphere. Above the Stratosphere is the Mesosphere. The Mesosphere is the coldest layer of the Atmosphere at negative 130 degrees Fahrenheit. Above the Mesosphere is the Thermosphere. The Thermosphere is the hottest layer of the Atmosphere at approximately 2,700 degrees Fahrenheit. Above the Thermosphere is the Exosphere. The Exosphere is extremely thin and where the Atmosphere merges with outer space. It's comprised of widely dispersed particles of Hydrogen and Helium.
What layer of the atmosphere does not exit above the polar regions?
Layer of atmosphere which is not present over poles is Ozone. It is due to very cold temperature.
There is little vertical air movement in the because of the cold heavy air at the bottom of the layer?
stratosphere.
Why holes in ozone layer are formed only above the poles and not in other areas?
Holes are formed only over poles because of temperature. It requires cold temperature.
Would it be possible to live in the stratosphere?
A human being would find it impossible to live in the stratosphere due to extreme cold temperature and lack of oxygen.
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.
A large temperature lapse rate would occur in a layer with?
a) uniformly cold temperatures throughout b) cold air above, warm air below c) warm air above, cold air below d) uniformly warm temperatures throughout
