Temperature decreases with altitude. On an average, the temperature decreases by 3.5 degrees F for every 1000 ft of altitude (6.5 degrees C for every 1000 meters). The rate depends on if the air is dry or moist - in dry air, the temperature decreases more quickly, in moist air more slowly.

What causes the temperature decreasing with height in the troposphere?
The air is thinner
What is the standard temperature lapse rate in the troposphere?
The standard temperature lapse rate or environmental lapse rate as it is more commonly known is basically the temperature difference between the tropopause surface divided by height. This uses the formula -dT/dz and essentially shows the temperature decreasing as the height above the tropopause increases.
How does temperature change as height increases the troposphere?
As the altitude increases in the Troposphere, The air temperature decreases. When about 1 kilometer increases in altitude, the air cools about 6.5 degrees Celsius. And at the very top of the Troposphere the air temperature stays the same at around -60 degrees Celsius.
How does temperature change as the height increases in troposphere?
As the altitude increases in the Troposphere, The air temperature decreases. When about 1 kilometer increases in altitude, the air cools about 6.5 degrees Celsius. And at the very top of the Troposphere the air temperature stays the same at around -60 degrees Celsius.
The tropopause is the boundary between?
The tropopause is the boundary between the troposphere (the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere where most weather occurs) and the stratosphere (the layer above the troposphere where the ozone layer is located). This boundary is characterized by a change in temperature and is found at an average height of about 8-15 kilometers above the Earth's surface.
What happens to temperature in the troposphere?
In the troposphere, temperature generally decreases with increasing altitude at a rate of around 6.5°C per kilometer due to the adiabatic cooling effect as air pressure decreases with height. This relationship is known as the environmental lapse rate and defines the temperature profile of the troposphere.
