What layer of the atmosphere contains most of the atmosphere's total mass?
The troposphere is the layer of the atmosphere that contains most of the atmosphere's total mass. It is the layer where weather occurs and where most of Earth's air is found.
What is the difference between the troposphere and the thermosphere?
The troposphere is the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere where weather occurs and temperature decreases with altitude. In contrast, the thermosphere is a layer of the atmosphere where temperatures can reach extremely high levels due to the absorption of solar radiation. Additionally, the thermosphere is located above the troposphere and extends into the exosphere.
Where does the greatest atmospheric pressure occur?
It occurs in the Troposphere because it is closer to earth so the air results in being more thicker and compressed
What does the trosposphere?
The "troposphere" is the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere, where weather occurs. It extends from the surface up to about 10-15 kilometers (6-9 miles) in altitude. The troposphere contains most of the atmosphere's water vapor and is where temperature generally decreases with altitude.
Does the Troposphere extend to the Van Allen Belts of radiation?
The Troposphere is the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere. Weather occurs in the Troposphere. The Van Allen Belts are made up of charged particles that have been captured by Earth's magnetic field. The particles sometimes enter the ionosphere, a layer of the Earth's atmosphere much higher than the Troposphere. The Northern and Southern lights are the result of these ions entering the Ionosphere. The Van Allen Belts are doughnut shaped and extend for 7,000 miles out into space.
Where does weather occur because of water vapors?
Weather occurs in the Troposphere. this is because the water vapor all gathers in the troposphere.
Do blizzards occur in the troposphere?
yes snow occurs in the troposphere so blizzards do too.
What are 2 facts about the troposphere?
1. Weather occurs in the troposphere. 2. The depth of the troposphere varies from 16 km to 9 km.
How do you use the word troposphere in a sentence?
The troposphere is the lowest layer of the atmosphere.
The layer of our atmosphere in which weather occurs is the?
troposphere
What is the name of the layer in the atmosphere where the weather occurs?
troposphere
True or false weather occurs in the troposphere?
true
What layer of the atmosphere is the lowest layer?
Troposphere The lowest layer of the atmosphere is known as the Troposphere. Weather occurs in this layer.
You would know you were in the troposphere if?
You were experiencing weather phenomena such as clouds, rain, and winds, as the troposphere is the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere where weather occurs.
is the layer of the atmosphere where weather occurs is the thermosphere true or false?
False. The layer of the atmosphere where weather occurs is the troposphere, not the thermosphere. The thermosphere is located higher up in the atmosphere and is known for its high temperatures.
What atmosphere layer do we live in?
Troposphere
What occurs when air temperatures in the troposphere increases as altitude increases?
Inversion
