The Aurora borealis and Aurora australis occur in which layer of the atmosphere?
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
The Aurora Borealis and its southern counterpart the Aurora Australis are formed high in the atmosphere in the ionosphere, which is sometimes considered as part of the thermosphere, the outermost actual atmosphere. Above this layer, the exosphere has so few molecules that they can escape into space.

Where are aurora's located in the atmosphere?
The aurora borealis and aurora australis occur in the Ionosphere from around 100 km up. This layer of the atmosphere is also called the Thermosphere.
In what layer of the atmosphere is the Aurora Borealis?
The Thermosphere.
Which part of the thermosphere causes the Aurora Borealis?
The Aurora Borealis and its southern counterpart the Aurora Australis are formed high in the atmosphere in the ionosphere, which is sometimes considered as part of the thermosphere, the outermost actual atmosphere. Above this layer, the exosphere has so few molecules that they can escape into space.(see the related question below)
In which layer of the atmosphere do the Northern Lights occur?
The "Northern Lights" (or Aurora Borealis) and their southern counterpart the Aurora Australis are formed high in the atmosphere in the ionosphere, which is sometimes considered as part of the thermosphere, the outermost actual atmospheric layer. Above this layer, the exosphere has so few molecules that they can escape into space.(see the related question below)
In which layer of the atmosphere do the Auroras occur?
In the upper mesosphere and the lower thermosphere, gas particles become electrically charged. Because these charged particles are called ions, this part of the thermosphere is called the ionosphere. In polar regions these ions radiate energy as shimmering lights called auroras, usually in latitudes above 50 degrees. The Aurora Borealis and its southern counterpart the Aurora Australis are formed high in the atmosphere in the ionosphere, which is sometimes considered as part of the thermosphere, the outermost actual atmosphere. Above this layer, the exosphere has so few molecules that they can escape into space. For more information visit the question "What causes the Aurora Borealis?"

Thermosphere, to be specific Ionosphere.

What layer that is the hottest and where the aurora borealis occur is called what?
thremosphere
Which layer of the atmosphere do Aurora form?
ionosphere
Which layer of the atmosphere has the Aurora Boralis?
The ionosphere.
Is the Aurora Borealis found in the mesosphere?
The Northern lights can be seen round the magnetic North pole of the Earth in the Arctic Circle. High energy particles of the Solar wind are guided to Earth down field lines and excite air molecules to glow. The Aurora Australis occurs over Antarctica
