How does the kinetic theory of gases explain the weather changes happening in the troposphere?

Since the troposphere is heated from below, it tends to be colder as you start moving up since the air gets thinner. The sun's heat radiates which causes the air to be "stirred up" which can cause weather changes.

Hope this helps! <3
