TROPOSPHERE



 




 The troposphere is the layer of the atmosphere nearest to earth.
  The troposphere extends from Earth's surface up to a height of  16 km.
  The temperature decreases as the altitude increases.
  Tropopause is seen at the top of this layer.
  Harmful ozone is found here…IT CREATES SMOG!
  All weather happens in the troposphere.
  Tropopause a layer of cold air (about -60°C), which forms the top of the
troposphere and creates a "cold trap" that causes atmospheric water vapor to condense.
