the troposphere is the1st layer of the atmosphere. It is the coolest layer and the closest to Earth. Most of Earth's weather happens here.

Is International Space Station in the troposphere?
Yes the international space station is in the tropsphere
Why is the tropsphere the most dense part in the atmosphere?
It is the closest one to the earth, so that's where the force of gravity is the strongest. Gravity is strong enough to hold on to a large number of particles.
What happens in the tropsphere?
Weather occurs in the troposphere
Is International Space Station in the troposphere?
Yes the international space station is in the tropsphere
How is the ozone in the statosphere the same as the ozone in the tropsphere?
Ozone is basically the same trioxygen molecule. It is present both in the stratosphere as well as troposphere.
What is the layer above the tropsphere that contains the ozone layer?
The atmosphere is divided into layers for easy recognition. The layer above the troposphere is the stratosphere.

Why does the temperature decrease when you reach a higher a higher altutude in the tropsphere?
Becuase of weather The decreased pressure means that the air molecules don't excite each other as much, since there are less collisions, so there is less (heat) energy going around. Also, there is simply less material to hold onto the heat than there is at lower altitudes.
To what layer of the atmosphere do weather balloons fly?
They fly into the stratosphere. Weather balloons can reach altitudes of 40 kilometers (about 25 miles).
Why does air temperature change as altitude increases?
It get's colder as you travel up into the atmosphere because the ozone layers block away a lot of heat. But once you get to the tropsphere layer te temperature is about 1,600 degrees because the sun goes throught that layer first, and that layer is about 500 kilometer's thick.
Why is the ozone hole bad for human beings?
It is a problem because it allows more UV rays to enter earth. These UV rays heat up the Arctic zone such as the north pole and Antarctica causing them to melt. This is bad because 1. it destroys polar bear habitats but more importantly because the ice caps in the Arctic regions deflect this rays but as ice melts UV rays hit the ocean and warm the water. As the water warms more hurricane are produce due to the overheating in the water. This is known as the greenhouse effect and it is one of the biggest causes for global warming.Ozone is not a problem. You may think the depletion of ozone causes global warming. But you are wrong, because ozone is a greenhouse gas. So if you take it away, the earthwill cool down and not warm up.If you do not believe me checkout en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse_gasOr do research for yourself.The ozone hole occurs every year, at each pole, when it is late winter / early spring. It has done this ever since there has been an ozone layer... hundreds of millions of years. It is not the hole that is the problem, it is the size and duration that indicates overall ozone layer health.
