Sounds like y'all are talking about moving through the tropopause;
from the troposphere, and upward through the stratosphere.
Temperature decreases (generally) with altitude in the troposphere,
because this region is ruled by thermal heating of the ground (and
associated boundary layer), convection, and adibatic expansion.
Once you get into the stratosphere, temperature increases with
altitude due to heating by UV radiation. (Obviously this is a short
form description.) 73, Ravi On 3/21/2019 1:16 PM, Bruce via BVARC
