Enhanced dehydration of the lower troposphere contributes to decreased water vapour greenhouse effect and cools the surface. A positive feedback is created between surface cooling and air dehydration, accelerating cold air production. This process is referred to as the dehydration-greenhouse feedback (DGF). 1, record 1, English, - dehydration%2Dgreenhouse%20feedback

[...] la réduction de la concentration des [noyaux glaçogènes] par l'[effet d’inhibition de gel induit par les sulfates] favoriserait une diminution de la concentration en nombre et une augmentation de la taille moyenne des cristaux de glace, en raison d’une compétition réduite pour une même quantité de vapeur d’eau disponible(i. e. par rapport à une situation d’absence de sulfates). Par conséquent, le taux de précipitation des cristaux de glace et le taux de déshydratation de la troposphère augmenteraient tandis que l'effet de serre associé à la vapeur d’eau diminuerait. Il s’en suivrait une accélération du refroidissement déjà en cours dans la masse d’air, puis l'activation d’une autre série de cristaux, donnant ainsi lieu à une rétroaction. 3, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9troaction%20d%C3%A9shydratation%2Deffet%20de%20serre

Ces vortex de méso-échelle, d’une taille approximative de 100 à 200 km [75 to 150 mi] sont plus forts en moyenne troposphère(5 km [3 mi]) et n’ ont pas de signature visible en surface. 1, record 3, French, - vortex%20de%20m%C3%A9so%2D%C3%A9chelle

La région moyenne de la troposphère correspondant aux couches comprises entre 2 et 7 kilomètres aux latitudes tempérées a reçu le nom d’étage moyen. C'est le domaine des Altocumulus. En fait, dans les régions polaires, l'Altocumulus est rarement rencontré au-dessus de 4 kilomètres, tandis que dans les régions équatoriales ou tropicales on peut le trouver jusqu'à 8 kilomètres. 3, record 13, French, - %C3%A9tage%20moyen

Les valeurs de vorticité cyclonique et anticyclonique atteignent leurs maximums en moyenne ou haute troposphère, au niveau de plus forte vitesse verticale où la convergence s’annule. Le poids des précipitations formées à partir des gouttelettes de nuage diminue bientôt l'intensité des mouvements verticaux au centre du courant ascendant, il va alors se séparer en deux parties : celle située sur la droite par rapport au déplacement emporte une circulation cyclonique appelée mésocyclone, celle sur la gauche une circulation anticyclonique, le mésoanticyclone. 1, record 14, French, - m%C3%A9soanticyclone
