The tropopause is located at the lowest level over (height) :
High latitude and polar region
The tropopause is the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere, where temperature stops falling with height.
Its height depends on how deep the convective, well-mixed layer is. Over the equator, intense surface heating and strong convection lift the tropopause to about 16 to 18 km.
Towards the poles, surface heating and convection weaken and the air is cold and dense, so the troposphere is shallow and the tropopause lies at only about 8 to 10 km.
The subtropics and mid-latitudes have intermediate heights, with a break in the tropopause near the subtropical jet. Therefore, the lowest tropopause is found over the high latitude and polar region.
Hence, High latitude and polar region.
