The bottom of the stratosphere typically begins at an altitude of about 10 to 15 kilometers (approximately 6 to 9 miles) above sea level. This boundary, known as the tropopause, varies depending on geographic location and weather conditions, being lower at the poles and higher at the equator. The stratosphere extends from this point up to about 50 kilometers (31 miles) in altitude.
What else can I help you with?
What is the difference between the Stratosphere Thermosphere and the Trophoshere?
Stratosphere is the layer above troposphere. Troposphere is the first layer and is below the stratosphere.
What are the layers of atmosphere from upper most layer to the bottom layer?
The layers of the atmosphere, from the uppermost to the bottom, are the exosphere, thermosphere, mesosphere, stratosphere, and troposphere. The exosphere is the outermost layer, where atmospheric particles are sparse and can escape into space. Below it, the thermosphere contains high temperatures and is where the auroras occur. The mesosphere follows, characterized by decreasing temperatures, while the stratosphere contains the ozone layer, and the troposphere is the layer closest to Earth's surface, where weather occurs.
What are the four main layer of the atmosphere in order?
The four main layers of the atmosphere in order from closest to the Earth's surface to farthest are the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere. The troposphere is where weather occurs and is closest to the Earth's surface. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer and has a stable temperature. The mesosphere is the layer where meteors burn up upon entering. The thermosphere is the outermost layer and contains the ionosphere where auroras are formed.
Why does the stratosphere end at 9 miles?
The Stratosphere does not end at 9 miles in the first place. The Stratosphere STARTS at 17 km so if you do the math, you will know that the Stratosphere does not end at 9 miles.Secondly, the Stratosphere ends at 17 km because that's where the Mesosphere starts.
What separate the stratosphere from the mesosphere?
stratopause
Is the ozone layer on top of the stratosphere or on bottom?
It is on the bottom. It is pool of ozone molecules.
What extends from the top of the troposphere to the bottom of the mesophere?
The stratosphere.
The layers of the earths atmosphere from top to bottom are the?
In descending order: exosphere, thermosphere, mesosphere, stratosphere, troposphere.
Does the temperature in the stratosphere decrease or increase?
In the stratosphere, the temperature increases with height. This is due to the presence of the ozone layer near the top of the stratosphere. The ozone layer absorbs incoming UV radiation, and thus the temperatures are warmer at the top of the stratosphere than at the bottom.
Does the stratosphere temperature increase or decrease?
In the stratosphere, the temperature increases with height. This is due to the presence of the ozone layer near the top of the stratosphere. The ozone layer absorbs incoming UV radiation, and thus the temperatures are warmer at the top of the stratosphere than at the bottom.
In the stratosphere does temperature increase or decrease with altitude?
In the stratosphere, the temperature increases with height. This is due to the presence of the ozone layer near the top of the stratosphere. The ozone layer absorbs incoming UV radiation, and thus the temperatures are warmer at the top of the stratosphere than at the bottom.
What is the length of altitudeof an equilateral triangle with sides of 8?
Given side lengths of 8 units, an equilateral triangle will have an altitude of 7 (6.9282) units.
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)
What are the layers in the atmosphere based on?
Temperature. They are (from the bottom) Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, and Thermosphere but if your using this to do your homework, then i hope you know the answer for the test.
What is the number of the layer that contains this ozone layer?
The ozone layer is contained in the stratosphere. This layer is the second to the bottom most layer.
The extends from the top of the troposphere to the bottom of the mesosphere?
The stratosphere extends from about 11 kilometers to 50 kilometers above the Earth's surface. This layer contains the ozone layer, which absorbs and scatters the sun's ultraviolet radiation. Temperature increases with altitude in the stratosphere due to the absorption of UV radiation by the ozone layer.
The upper stratosphere is cooler than the lower stratosphere.?
Is the upper stratosphere is cooler than the lower stratosphere?\
