BlakeAt higher altitudes, you may notice the sunrise appears earlier than expected due to being above obstructions like mountains. Additionally, the colors of the sunrise may appear more vibrant and the sun's rays may appear more intense due to the thinner atmosphere at higher altitudes.

Does Venus have no sunrise?
Venus does have sunrises, but they are different from Earth's due to its slow retrograde rotation. A Venusian day is longer than its year, with the sun rising in the west and setting in the east. Venus also experiences a "false dawn" where the sky brightens before sunrise.
Does the temperature change due to the sunrise sag?
The temperature can change due to sunrise as it marks the start of warming from the sun's radiation. However, this change may be gradual and depend on factors such as cloud cover and geographic location.
In which layers does the temperature decrease as altitude increases?
Temperature will decrease as the altitude increases at all levels due to the thinning of atmospheric gasses.
What is the steadily decreasing with altitude in the troposphere called?
The steady decrease in temperature with altitude in the troposphere is called the environmental lapse rate. This is due to the decreasing pressure and density of the air as altitude increases.
What do cities located on the same meridians must have in common?
Cities located on the same meridian will have the same solar time, meaning they experience noon and sunset at the same time. This can impact factors like sunrise and sunset times, as well as length of day during different seasons.
