Air presents in layers within the atmosphere, primarily due to variations in temperature, pressure, and density at different altitudes. As altitude increases, temperature generally decreases in the troposphere, leading to changes in air density and pressure. This stratification occurs because warmer air is less dense and rises, while cooler, denser air sinks, creating distinct layers. These variations impact weather patterns, climate, and the behavior of aircraft.
