How is the atmosphere structured?
The Earth's atmosphere is structured into several layers based on temperature variations and composition. The lowest layer, known as the troposphere, is where most weather phenomena occur and where the majority of Earth's atmosphere is contained. Above the troposphere is the stratosphere, which contains the ozone layer that helps protect the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation. The mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere are the higher layers of the atmosphere, with each layer varying in temperature and composition as you move further away from the Earth's surface. This layered structure plays a crucial role in regulating temperature, weather patterns, and the overall climate of our planet.
