Over 99% of the mass of the earth's atmosphere is contained in two layers: the troposphere and the stratosphere. Most of the earth's atmosphere (80 to 90%) is found in the troposphere, the atmospheric layer where we live. This layer, where the earth's weather occurs, is within about 12 km (7 miles) of the earth's surface.

What is a cloud that forms high up in the troposphere?

What is the difference between troposphere and tropopause?
A troposphere layer of atmosphere is the are that we all breathe. Mesosphere in the other hand has less air pressure and high into space far from troposphere.
How high above Earth's surface does the troposphere reach?
15km
What phenomena occur in the troposphere?
The troposphere is the section of the atmosphere in which 95% of weather occurs. the troposphere is where 99% of clouds are and is also the thinnest layer of the atmosphere. the troposphere is thicker in more tropical areas. This is because of the more heat.
Describe the temperature changes that occur as you move upward through the troposphere?
The temperature gets colder as you go upward in the troposphere. Light from the Sun heats the ground. The warm ground gives off the heat as infrared "light". The IR energy heats the troposphere. The lowest part of the troposphere is the warmest because it is closest to the ground, where the heat is coming from.
What is the pressure high or low in troposphere?
about how low is the troposphere
Will zak and Zeke get above the troposphere?
no!!!because the air pressure will be too high and there won't be enough oxygen for them to be able to breath

How high up does the troposphere go?
The troposphere, which is the lowest layer of the atmosphere, extends from the surface of the Earth up to a height that varies between about 9 km (or 30,000 ft) at the poles and 17 km (or 56,000 ft) at the equator.
What is the difference between troposphere and tropopause?
A troposphere layer of atmosphere is the are that we all breathe. Mesosphere in the other hand has less air pressure and high into space far from troposphere.
Where are cirrus clouds found in the atmosphere?
in the high region of the troposphere
How high above Earth's surface does the troposphere reach?
15km
What part of the troposphere is a cumulonimbus cloud located?
The Cumulonimbus cloud develops in the lower part of the troposphere, near the Earth's surface, and can reach high into the troposphere. This cloud can be a sign of dangerous storms to come.
What atmosphere does a helicopter go in?
they fly in the troposphere.
Why is the troposphere?
because with out the troposphere we wouldn't have oxygen to breath. also we wouldn't have clouds forming because they occur in the troposphere also. with out clouds we would go into drought and dye.
What process moves energy from earths surface to high in the troposphere?
conduction
Does the troposphere have oxygen?
Oh yes. The troposphere is the lowest level of the atmosphere, the level that we live and breathe in, and it does have lots of oxygen in it, until you get to very high altitudes.
