Altitude doesn't change uniformly because the four main layers of the atmosphere have different temperature gradients, creating the thermal structure of the atmosphere.

Why doesnt air temperature increase or decrease with altitude?
It does.It is a slightly complicated relationship, but temperature does change dependent upon altitude until the very final part of the Earth's atmosphere.Just consider that, for example, the tops of mountains are covered in snow. This is due to the air temperature being less than it is at ground level.
How does altitude mimic latitude in climate?
it doesnt
Did the temperature fluctuate while the is melting?
No. The temperature does not change during the melting process. All of the heat energy is used to break the bonds of the solid to form a liquid, i.e. the energy is used in the phase change, and thus is not used to raise the temperature.
Why doesnt sucrose have a boiling listed?
Sucrose will decompose (detoriate) when heated up at a temperature before it reaches melting point temperature.
What has to happen for water to change temperature?
the energy from the sun goes to the equator causing a temperature difference at the poles. Blowing cold wind over the water, and the suns energy on the water effects the temperature change in the water.

When liquid is boiling its temp doesnt change?
At the boiling point the temperature remain unchanged.
Is it true that a star doesnt change its size or temperature during its life?
No, that's not true.
Why doesnt it snow in san bernardino?
Wrong altitude and longitude.
What are the effects of temperature on the rebound of a tennis ball?
its is the air inside the tennis ball that you should be concerned with. Cold air is compressed and gives the ball less bounce, hot air is less dense and pushes on the sides of the tennis ball from the inside. Another important factor is altitude. altitude changes the amount of oxygen in the air. this doesnt change rebound it causes the ball to travel further in air.
How does rain affect air temperatures?
rain doesnt actualy change the temperature although it may feel like it
Why doesnt temperature change when transferring from ice too water?
The thermal energy required to change state is taken from the environment; which in this case is the melt water.
What factors affects tadpole growth?
The most important temperature, the second is light intensity
Do crocodile's body temperature changes as per the change in temperature of air?
No, they are cold blooded animals and weather doesnt affect them. Unlike us, we are warm blooded. Hope this helps you(:
What does water have to do with air temperature?
it doesnt
