The elevation of a smog layer can vary significantly depending on local atmospheric conditions, geography, and the sources of pollution. Typically, smog forms in the lower atmosphere, often within a few hundred meters above ground level. In urban areas, it may be found at altitudes ranging from around 50 to 1,500 meters (164 to 4,921 feet). Factors such as temperature inversions can also influence the height of the smog layer, trapping pollutants close to the surface.
The layer of atmosphere where weather, clouds, and smog occur is the troposphere. This is the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere, extending from the surface up to an average altitude of about 10-15 kilometers. It is where virtually all weather phenomena, including clouds and smog, take place.
The lowest layer of the atmosphere is the troposphere. It is where clouds, smog, and weather phenomena occur. The troposphere extends from the Earth's surface up to an average altitude of about 7 miles.
No, the ozone layer is located in the stratosphere, which is above the troposphere where smog occurs. The ozone layer actually helps protect the Earth's surface from harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun. Smog is formed by a reaction between pollutants in the lower atmosphere.
The layer of air over L.A. that holds in smog is called an inversion layer.
