stratosphere, temperature increases with altitude. This is because of ozone. 
When the ozone in this layer absorbs UV light from the sun, it increases in 
temperature. [DOC] [TLE] Ozone layer - Wikipedia [PAR] The ozone layer or ozone shield is a region of Earth's stratosphere that absorbs 
most of the Sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It contains high concentrations ozone
