Answer:

The troposphere

The troposphere is the lowest layer of atmosphere of the Earth and the layers to which changes can greatly influence the floral and faunal environments. The troposphere extends from the surface of the Earth to a height of approximately 30,000 ft at the Polar Regions to approximately 56,000 ft at the equator, with some variation due to weather. The troposphere is bounded above by the tropopause, a boundary marked in most places by a temperature inversion (i.e. a layer of relatively warm air above a colder one), and in others by a zone which is isothermal with height.

Although variations do occur, the temperature usually declines with increasing altitude in the troposphere because the troposphere is mostly heated through energy transfer from the surface. Thus, the lowest part of the troposphere (i.e. the surface of the Earth) is typically the warmest section of the troposphere, which promotes vertical mixing. The troposphere contains approximately 80% of the mass of the atmosphere of the Earth. The troposphere is denser than all its overlying atmospheric layers because a larger atmospheric weight sits on top of the troposphere and causes it to be most severely compressed.

In the current context of water, the majority of the atmospheric water vapor or moisture is found in the troposphere.
