What reading level is Meteorology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Experiment has shown that water vapour is a much better absorber and radiator of heat than oxygen or nitrogen which are the chief constitutents of the air and its presence exerts a marked influence on the balance of radiation. Its presence in the troposphere increases the loss by radiation from this part of the atmosphere and the actual distribution of tempera- ture as found in the troposphere can only be maintained by the communication of heat to the upper part of the THE STRATOSPHERE 149 trop...osphere by convection from below. At the low temperature which prevails in the stratosphere there is practically no water vapour and the loss of heat by radiation, in excess of the gain by absorption, such as occurs in the troposphere, cannot take place. This line of argument may be used to give an explanation of the greater height of the tropopause over the tropics as compared with temperate or polar regions. The high temperatures at the surface which prevail in the tropics give rise to an excess of water vapour there, so that the conditions peculiar to the troposphere extend to a greater altitude than they do in regions where there is less vapour in the air.
