troposphere

noun ˈtrəʊpə(ʊ)sfɪəˈtrɒpə(ʊ)sfɪəˈtrɑpəˌsfɪ(ə)r
  • The lowest region of the atmosphere, extending from the earth's surface to a height of about 6–10 km (the lower boundary of the stratosphere).

    对流层

    Example sentencesExamples
    • Also, the presence of stratospheric ozone sandwiched between the satellite and the troposphere makes seeing tropospheric ozone very difficult.
    • The other two climate records, so-called ‘upper air’ records, measure temperatures in Earth's troposphere and stratosphere.
    • The stratosphere extends above the troposphere to about 150,000 feet and is the region where the ozone layer is formed.
    • The stratosphere is the atmospheric layer between the troposphere and the mesosphere and extends from about 12 km altitude to about 50 km.
    • Because of the cloud spreading at the top, the height of the troposphere in the area can also be calculated.

Derivatives

  • tropospheric

  • adjective trəʊpə(ʊ)ˈsfɛrɪktrɒpə(ʊ)ˈsfɛrɪk
    • More significant is the delay caused by the troposphere, in particular tropospheric water vapour, which is non-dispersive and must be estimated using models of pressure, temperature, and humidity variation with altitude.
      Example sentencesExamples
      • So do all climate changes cause opposing trends in stratospheric and tropospheric temperatures?
      • The most egregious example is when the temperature sensor becomes coated with ice in a rain cloud, in which case upper tropospheric temperatures can be as much as 20 C too warm.
      • Further, distance-dependent or spatially correlated errors due to ionospheric, tropospheric or satellite orbit effects can be more accurately modelled in a network approach.
      • The authors demonstrate that the presence of stronger westerly jets in the stratosphere causes tropospheric weather systems to track further toward the pole.

Origin

Early 20th century: from Greek tropos 'turning' + sphere.
