These altitudes are so high that monsoon air then ascends freely into the stratosphere, the stable layer that overlies the lower part of the atmosphere and contains the Earth's protective ozone layer.

With higher precipitation, portions of this snow may not melt during the summer and so glacial ice can form at lower altitudes and more southerly latitudes, reducing the temperatures over land by increased albedo as noted above.

If one experiences any altitude sickness in Cusco they will want to tell the private guide for the day so he may revise the itinerary to visit a small town in a lower altitude.

Vigorous convective mixing in the deep tropics also dilutes changes in near - surface CO2 much more than at higher latitudes, so low - altitude sampling contains relatively less information about carbon sources and sinks.

Multiplied by the decreasing density with altitude (the other half), there is always just enough pressure for the lower layers of the atmosphere to hold up the upper layers and so on up leading to lower and lower pressure with altitude as there is less and less mass above each layer (hydrostatic equilibrium).

Paradoxically temperatures in the middle troposphere (400 mb) have been falling, perhaps reflecting a combination of effects, like surface warming, drier middle altitudes, lower solar influence and so on?

I understand how things like changing the paint to something more reflective could result in a cooling step change, or moving from less windy to more windy location could add evaporative cooling, and going from a lower to higher altitude, or moving into a seabreeze, and so forth.

To do so, you'd need a study such as mine which shows water vapour cools and more moist regions have lower mean daily maximum and minimum temperatures than drier regions at similar latitudes and altitudes.

More light is absorbed at higher altitudes compared to the lower stratosphere, so the temperature increases.

Tim Folkerts says: >> So the heavy gases are enriched at low altitudes, but do not completely >> displace the lighter molecules.

However, it is much easier to figure out what happens when you add more radiative gases to an atmosphere that already has them: And, the answer is that it increases the IR opacity of the atmosphere, which increases the altitude of the effective radiating level and hence means the emission is occurring from a lower - temperature layer, leading to a reduction of emission that is eventually remedied by the atmosphere heating up so that radiative balance at the top - of - the - atmosphere is restored.
