What (who) is troposphere$85394$ - definition

CANADIAN SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENT ABOARD NASA'S TERRA SATELLITE
Measurements of Pollution in the Troposphere
  • MOPITT satellite computer image of carbon monoxide March 2010.

troposphere         
  • circulation]] of the planetary atmosphere of the Earth, of which the troposphere is the lowest layer.
  • The atmosphere of the Earth is in five layers: <br> (i) the [[exosphere]] at 600+ km; <br> (ii) the [[thermosphere]] at 600 km; <br> (iii) the [[mesosphere]] at 95–120 km; <br> (iv) the [[stratosphere]] at 50–60 km; and <br> (v) the troposphere at 8–15 km. <br> The distance from the planetary surface to the edge of the stratosphere is ±50 km, less than 1.0% of the radius of the Earth.
  • '''Meridional Flow:''' The meridional flow pattern of 23 October 2003 shows amplified troughs and ridges in the 500 hPa height pattern.
  • '''Zonal Flow:''' a [[zonal flow regime]] indicates the dominant west-to-east flow of the atmosphere in the 500 hPa height pattern.
LOWEST LAYER OF THE ATMOSPHERE
Troposhere; Tropospheric; Tropospherical; Epitroposphere; Trophosphere; The Troposphere; Tropospherics; Tropospheres
['tr?p?(?)sf??, 'tr??p-]
¦ noun 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).
Derivatives

The troposphere is the first and lowest layer of the atmosphere of the Earth, and contains 75% of the total mass of the planetary atmosphere, 99% of the total mass of water vapour and aerosols, and is where most weather phenomena occur. From the planetary surface of the Earth, the average height of the troposphere is in the tropics; in the middle latitudes; and in the high latitudes of the polar regions in winter; thus the average height of the troposphere is .

MOPITT

MOPITT (Measurements of Pollution in the Troposphere) is a payload scientific instrument launched into Earth orbit by NASA on board the Terra satellite in 1999. It is designed to monitor changes in pollution patterns and its effect in the lower atmosphere of the Earth. The instrument was funded by the Space Science Division of the Canadian Space Agency.
