What is the air temperature at the tropopause over the equator?
−80°C
- The tropopause is the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere.
- Over the equator, the tropopause is located at a higher altitude (about 16-18 km) compared to the poles.
- The temperature at the equatorial tropopause is approximately −80°C.
- The temperature is lower because the rising warm air cools as it expands.
- The tropopause acts as a barrier, preventing significant mixing between tropospheric and stratospheric air masses.
