known as the tropopause. There is now a growing consensus amongst models that the effect of climate change on the strength of the Brewer–Dobson circulation is robust (N. Butchart, Met Office ...

But if the storm is very energetic, the upward movement of air can punch through the troposphere's ceiling, the tropopause, to keep on rising into the stratosphere, the next layer up in the ...

According to a new study, tropopause has been witnessing an increase in expansion over the past few decades. It’s expanding at a higher rate than before and this is due to climate change.

Cyclonic vortices on the tropopause are characterized by compact structure and larger pressure, wind and temperature perturbations when compared to broader and weaker anticyclones. Neither the origin ...

An astronaut’s photo from the International Space Station captures crepuscular rays and cumulonimbus clouds, revealing a ...

In this bizarre phenomenon called the “tropopause fold”, ozone from the stratosphere is brought down to the ground. The stratosphere typically sits above the troposphere, and they touch ...

Caption Shading represents surface air temperature anomalies, and the green vector denotes jetstream (a narrow band of very strong westerly air currents near the altitude of the tropopause). Two ...

Since 1988, many people, politicians and organizations have been complicit in the Gorbachev scheme. Despite their many names ...

As the volcanic plume ascended rapidly, pockets of heated air and ash collided with the tropopause, or the “ceiling” of the lower atmosphere; while some of the momentum probably continued ...
