The 13 pages that link to Stratosphere, each with the reason it gives.

• Ozone layerNarrower topic: The ozone layer occupies part of this broader atmospheric region.

• Volcanic winterNarrower topic: Aerosols persist longer when eruptions inject sulfur gases into this relatively dry layer.

• Atmosphere of EarthBroader topic: Ozone absorption creates this layer’s distinctive temperature increase with height.

• Nuclear winterBroader topic: Smoke reaching this layer can remain aloft far longer than smoke near the ground.

• ThermosphereCompared with: It also warms upward, but through ozone absorption rather than the thermosphere’s high-energy radiation.

• Ozone–oxygen cycleNarrower topic: Most atmospheric ozone involved in this cycle resides in this layer.

• TroposphereCompared with: Its contrasting temperature profile separates it from the troposphere.

• Polar vortexNarrower topic: The best-known polar vortex occupies this layer during winter.

• Polar stratospheric cloudNarrower topic: Polar stratospheric clouds form within this atmospheric layer.

• MesosphereRelated: It directly underlies the mesosphere and helps define its lower boundary.

• ChloromethaneRelated: Some chloromethane survives long enough to carry chlorine into the ozone-bearing stratosphere.

• Felix BaumgartnerNarrower topic: The stratosphere’s low pressure and thin air defined the conditions of the jump.

• TrichlorofluoromethaneNarrower topic: CFC-11 persists long enough to reach this layer, where ultraviolet radiation releases chlorine.
