i·on·o·sphere
n. A region of the earth's atmosphere where ionization caused by incoming solar radiation affects the transmission of radio waves. It extends from a height of 70 kilometers (43 miles) to 400 kilometers (250 miles) above the surface.

This layer is responsible for the possibility of radio communication?
The Ionosphere
What layer of the atmosphere reflects radio waves?
the ionosphere.
Does the ionosphere stretche from the mesosphere through the thermosphere?
NO the ionosphere is only in the Thermosphere
Electrically charged particles are found primarily in what atmosphere?
They are found in the Ionosphere.
Does ionosphere protect the earth from uv rays?
No, it does not protect. Ionosphere is a charged layer wit ions.
Is the ionosphere below the exosphere?
i believe it is
This layer is responsible for the possibility of radio communication?
The Ionosphere
The region of the atmosphere that reflects radio signals is the?
The Ionosphere.
Which layer of the atmosphere contains the ionosphere and what are the ionosphere's characteristics?
The thermosphere contains the ionosphere. The ionosphere is the layer that is ionized by the solor radiation.
What does the ionosphere do to microwaves?
To oversimplify it, the ionosphere either reflect microwaves or allows it to pass through depending upon its frequency, the threshold is approximately 100MHz. Anything below that gets reflected anything higher passes through.
Does the temperature increases rapidly after ionosphere?
ionosphere
Why ionosphere is important?
the ionosphere is important is the it is in the thermosphere
What is a sentence for ionosphere?
Electric currents in the ionosphere
How did the ionosphere get its name?
The ionosphere gets its name from it being charged with ions. It is called the ionosphere because it is in the shape of a sphere.
What important quality does the ionosphere?
the ionosphere is important is the it is in the thermosphere
What layer of the atmosphere reflects radio waves?
the ionosphere.
What is another name for ionosphere?
Another name for the ionosphere is the thermosphere.
