On average, the temperature gradient of the troposphere is 6.5oC per 1,000 m (3.6oF per 1,000 ft) of altitude. Earth's surface is the source of heat for the troposphere. Rock, soil, and water on Earth absorb the Sun's light and radiate it back into the atmosphere as heat, so there is more heat near the surface.Aug 7, 2016
