What is the boundary between the troposphere and stratosphere?
The boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere is called the tropopause.
How is water trapped in stratosphere?
Water is trapped beneath the stratosphere by the tropopause. (The tropopause is the boundary between the troposphere and stratosphere.)
What is the thin outer layer of the troposphere that marks the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere?
tropopause
The tropopause is approximately how far above sea level?
The tropopause is the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere. Its height asl varies with latitude (highest near the equator). 12-15 km approx.
What are the two lowest layers of the atmosphere separated by?
The tropopause separates the troposphere (below) and stratosphere (above). It is a boundary, not a layer in itself.
Is the tropopause in the mesosphere?
No. The tropopause is the boundary between the troposphere and that stratosphere.
What is the boundary between the stratosphere and troposphere?
The boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere is called the tropopause.
What is the boundary between the troposphere and stratosphere?
The boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere is called the tropopause.
What is the troposphere's topmost boundary?
The troposphere's topmost boundary is the tropopause.
How is water trapped in stratosphere?
Water is trapped beneath the stratosphere by the tropopause. (The tropopause is the boundary between the troposphere and stratosphere.)
What is the thin outer layer of the troposphere that marks the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere?
tropopause
What is the thin outer layer of the troposphere that marks the boundary between the troposphere and stratosphere?
tropopause
How Many layers of atmosphere are under the tropopause?
The troposphere, where all weather occurs. (We live in the troposphere.)
The tropopause is approximately how far above sea level?
The tropopause is the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere. Its height asl varies with latitude (highest near the equator). 12-15 km approx.
What is located immediately above the tropopause?
The tropopause is the boundary layer in the Earth's atmosphere from the troposphere below and the stratosphere above.
Where is the Tropopause located of earth's atmosphere?
The height of the Tropopause depends mainly on the Latitude. At the Poles, it is about 30,000' and at the equator it is about 60,000. This number varies with a change in temperature/season. It is higher at the equator due to a naturally higher temperature at sea level, this means the parcel of air has a lower density. Because of the lower density the parcel of air will be more 'stretched out' than the air at the poles (the colder parcel of air with a higher density).
What is the layer in which the jet stream can be found?
The jet stream is thought to be in or near the tropopause. The tropopause is not an atmospheric layer, rather it's the boundary between the troposphere (the lowest layer where most weather happens) and the stratosphere (the next higher layer).
