Jet Stream

The main jet streams are located near the tropopause, the transition between the troposphere (where temperature decreases with altitude) and the stratosphere(where temperature increases with altitude)

What is a TRUE STATEMENT about the stratosphere?

It is above the troposphere.


Is the upper stratosphere colder then the lower stratosphere?

Yes, the upper stratosphere is colder than the lower stratosphere. This is because the stratosphere is heated from below by the Earth's surface, so as you move higher in the atmosphere, the temperature decreases. The temperature inversion between the lower and upper stratosphere is due to the absorption of solar radiation by ozone in the upper stratosphere.


Into which layer of the atmosphere are jet airplane able to travel?

The stratosphere


Do jet stream occur in the mesosphere?

No. The jet stream is in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere.


Is the stratosphere?

The stratosphere is the layer above the troposphere (where we live). The ozone layer is found in the lower stratosphere. The stratosphere is the lowest layer where temperature increases with increasing altitude.


Why there is no rain in the stratosphere?

There is no rain in the stratosphere because the amount of water in the stratosphere is much lower than in the lower atmosphere, which means the condensation of water vapour which creates rain doesn't occur in the atmosphere.


In which layer of the atmosphere is the jet stream located?

The jet stream is located in the tropopause. This is the layer between the troposphere and the stratosphere. The jet stream is very strong wind that blows eastward.


This is the lower half of the middle atmosphere?
