Question
temperature decreases with increasing altitude (distance from earths surface) in all layers of the atmosphere. true false question 7 2 pts in the troposphere, temperature declines as altitude (distance from earths surface) increases. true false
In the atmosphere, temperature doesn't decrease with altitude in all layers. For example, in the stratosphere, temperature increases with altitude due to the presence of the ozone layer which absorbs ultraviolet radiation. However, in the troposphere, the layer closest to the Earth's surface, temperature generally declines as altitude increases because the troposphere gets its heat mainly from the Earth's surface.
