    Altitude and Pressure
    Ambient temperatures generally decrease with increasing altitude in the troposphere-, a phenomenon known as the lapse rate. However, this trend is complicated by localized anomalies related to barometric pressure fluctuations. At extreme altitudes, such as those found near the Geographic Poles-, the near-vacuum state of the atmosphere means that heat transfer relies almost entirely on [ra…
