tropopause No definition provided Ryan McGranaghan 2023.04.16
Tropopause The boundary between the troposphere and stratosphere. Its height, varying with latitude and seasons, is from 8 km at poles, to 18 km at equator; it is higher during winter time. The atmospheric tempe rature decreases from ground upward until the tropopause. Then it increases in stratosphere because of the absorption of solar ultraviolet radiation. Ryan McGranaghan 2023.04.16
