How do atmospheric layers differ?

The five layers of the atmosphere have different atmospheric temperature that occurs with increasing altitude. The layers also thin out with height from the surface.


What is the highest layer of the atmosphere?

The highest layer of atmosphere is the exosphere. The layers from earth are; troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere.


What divides the layers of the earth's atmosphere?

From the Earth outward the layers of the atmosphere are; Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere, Exosphere. These layers are divided by whether the temperature increases or deceases with an increase in altitude within the layer.


What are the locations of the layers of the atmosphere?

The troposphere. The troposphere is one of the four layers of the atmosphere (0-10km in altitude) containing water vapour. Clouds are formed by water condensing and as air cools. This is why cloud formation is possible because the temperature of the troposphere decreases with altitude.


Why doesnt air temperature change uniformly with altitude?

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


What are the names of the two lowest layers of the atmosphere?

The TROPOSPHERE (up to 10 km altitude, where we live) and the STRATOSPHERE (10 to 50 km altitude, where jet aircraft fly).
