I may revisit and improve, but knowing myself it might be a long time before that happens. If you can offer a competing answer, I'll be among the first to vote! | |

It's quite common to see multiple cloud layers within the troposphere. When this happens, the temperature profile in the troposphere is not the nice uniform lapse rate portrayed in the standard atmosphere model. Instead, there are regions of temperature inversions. | |
