The troposphere and the stratosphere.
Explanation:
The tropopause is the band of the atmosphere between the troposphere and the stratosphere that is unique in that the temperature no longer decreases with altitude (lapse rate changes from positive to negative. This is due to the fact that the ozone layer is most prevalent here (ozone absorbs ultraviolet light and therefore heats up).
