A small research in google :

"<span>Temperatures rise with increasing altitude in the stratosphere. Ozone molecules in the stratosphere absorb ultraviolet radiation coming from the Sun. The energy from the UV radiation is transformed into heat. The heating is most intense near the top of the stratosphere, so that is where the stratosphere is warmest."

In short, the stratosphere is warmest at the top because it absorbs UV radiation and also more the altitude is high more it's warm.

Hope this helps !

What features suggest wheather erosion or deposition created a landform?
11111nata11111 [884]
Not quite sure what you're asking, but erosion and deposition do create land forms. For example: erosion along the coastline may result in the formations of arches, stacks, stumps, wave cut platforms, caves, etc. Deposition, different amount of it and in certain areas, under the influence of either destructive or constructive waves, will form beaches - ones with a lot of beach, through a lot of deposition, or slopes beaches where destructive waves have crashed upon the beach. Hope this is what you're looking for.
