  1. 1. The lowest layer of the atmosphere, extending from the Earth’s surface to 6-10 km high, within which there is a steady drop in temperature with increasing altitude, cloud formation and weather occurs here.
  2. 3. Starts at the top of the troposphere to about 50 km, where most jets fly, ozone layer is found Here, temperature increases with altitude because ozone absorbs UV rays which warm the air.
