The troposphere is the lowest portion of Earth's atmosphere. It is the densest layer of the atmosphere and contains approximately 75% of the mass of the atmosphere and almost all the water vapor and aerosols.

The troposphere extends from the Earth's surface up to the tropopause, where the stratosphere begins. The depth of the troposphere is greatest in the tropical regions (up to 20 km) and smallest at the poles (about 7 km in summer, indistinct in winter). The lower part, where friction on the Earth's surface influences with air flow, is the planetary boundary layer which may be up to 2 km high depending on the landform and time of day. The border of the troposphere and stratosphere, the tropopause, is an temperature inversion.

The word troposphere stems from the Greek "tropos" for "turning" or "mixing." The troposphere is the most turbulent part of the atmosphere and is the part of the atmosphere in which most weather phenomena are seen.
