Earth’s lower atmosphere is rising due to climate change

Global temperatures are rising and so, it seems, is part of the sky

Atmosphere readings collected by weather balloons in the Northern Hemisphere over the last 40 years reveal that climate change is pushing the upper boundary of the troposphere — the slice of sky closest to the ground — steadily upward at a rate of 50 to 60 meters per decade, researchers report November 5 in Science Advances

The tropopause rose an average of about 200 meters in height from 1980 to 2020. Nearly all weather occurs in the troposphere, but it’s unlikely that this shift will have on a big effect on weather, the researchers say. Still, this research is an important reminder of the impact of climate change on our world

We see signs of global warming around us, in retreating glaciers and rising sea levels

Now, we see it in the height of the troposphere.
