Short summary
The tropopause, the boundary between the lower and upper atmosphere, is a sensitive marker of climate change. We studied changes in tropopause height and temperature over the past two decades using precise satellite observations. We found warming in the tropics and rising tropopause heights in many regions, especially over Asia and the Middle East. These changes reflect how both atmospheric layers are responding to climate change and highlight the need for continued satellite monitoring.
