stratospheric
意味: Relating to the stratosphere — the layer of the Earth's atmosphere between roughly 12 and 50 kilometres above the surface. Figuratively, extremely high or excessive.
In scientific usage, the stratosphere is notable for containing the ozone layer, which absorbs harmful ultraviolet radiation. Stratospheric ozone depletion was one of the defining environmental issues of the late 20th century, leading to the Montreal Protocol. In popular and journalistic usage, 'stratospheric' is a vivid hyperbole meaning astronomically high — applied to prices, salaries, or ambitions. It collocates with 'ozone,' 'temperatures,' 'prices,' 'heights,' and 'levels.'
