James senior worked at the Royal Observatory and he married Cecilia who was the daughter of Henry Belville, an assistant at the Observatory. Before examining James Junior's biography, let us note that his father was the first to recognise the existence of the stratosphere. He made a balloon ascents which are described in the Report of the Council of the Royal Astronomical Society of 1862:- One of the main objects of Glaisher and Coxwell's ascents was to extend and improve our knowledge of the relation which exists between increase of elevation and the corresponding variations of temperature and moisture, these variations in their turn having an intimate bearing on the theoretic determination of atmospheric refraction. The results of Mr Glaisher's observations indicate that the current hypothesis ... must be abandoned ...

In 1845, Glaisher published his dew point tables, for the measurement of humidity. Glaisher was a founder member of the Meteorological Society ( ), and the Aeronautical Society of Great Britain ( He is most famous, however, as a pioneering balloonist. Between and , usually with Henry Tracey Coxwell as his co-pilot, Glaisher made numerous ascents in order to measure the temperature and humidity of the atmosphere at its highest levels. One one ascent in 1862, he broke the world record for altitude, but passed out before a reading could be taken. Estimates suggest that he rose to approximately 7 miles above sea-level.

Meteorological phenomena are observable weather events which illuminate and are explained by the science of meteorology. Those events are bound by the variables that exist in Earth's atmosphere. They are temperature, pressure, water vapor, and the gradients and interactions of each variable, and how they change in time. The majority of Earth's observed weather is located in the troposphere.
