âGypsumâs main benefit for our farm is to improve soil structure and plant health, which in turn gives us better yields,â he says. âFor the cost, it gives us a good value for our economic returnâabout 10 to 20%.â
Stratosphere. The Stratosphere extends from the tropopause up to 31 miles above the Earth's surface. This layer holds 19 percent of the atmosphere's gases but very little water vapor. Temperature increases with height as radiation is increasingly absorbed by oxygen molecules leading to the formation of Ozone.s the density of the gases in this layer decrease with height, the air becomes thinner. Therefore, the temperature in the troposphere also decreases with height. As you climb higher, the temperature drops from about 62. (17.
Therefore, the air pressure is lower. Air temperature changes as you go higher above the earth. Since the surface of the earth heats the air above it, the air is warmer near the ground. Air pressure on the earth's surface also changes. Changes in temperature cause changes in air pressure. As the air near the surface of the earth becomes warmer, the particles becomes warmer, the the particles of the air move farther apart. The air becomes lighter and rises. The lighter air pushes down on the surface of the earth with less pressure.
