How does the temperature of the stratosphere compare to the mesosphere?
A cold front has passed.
westerlies and polar highs
Air pollution can travel to the United States and affect people's health
Calm weather, as air sinks
The cold air would force the warm air mass upward producing thunderstorms
Because there are fewer molecules as altitude increases
It causes winds to turn to the right in the Northern Hemisphere
It is warmer than the mesosphere because the stratosphere contains the ozone layer
