Details
Atmospheric stratification is the division of the atmosphere into distinct layers, each with specific characteristics such as temperature or composition. In general, air pressure and density decrease in the atmosphere as height increases. However, temperature has a more complicated profile with altitude. Because the general pattern of this profile is constant and recognizable through means such as balloon soundings, temperature provides a useful metric to distinguish between atmospheric layers. The lowest layer is the troposphere, in which temperature decreases at what is known as the atmospheric lapse rate. The farther that air is from Earth's surface, the less heat it receives radiated from the ground. This continues until the tropopause is reached. The tropopause ranges in altitude depending on latitude and weather patters, but is typically around 9 km at the poles, and 17 km at the equator
