The boundary between the asthenosphere and the lithosphere is normally below the Moho (which marks the boundary between the crust and the mantle). The exception to this is below mid-ocean ridges where the moho and the lithosphere / asthenosphere boundary are at the same depth.
The softer layer below the lithosphere is the asthenosphere. The asthenosphere begins at a depth of approximately 150 km. It has convection currents that arise from the heating and subsequent rising of material from the lower asthenosphere. These convection currents drive the movement of lithospheric plates at the surface, and are the cause of tectonic activity.
The mantle extends to the core-mantle interface at approximately 2900 km depth. Thus, the mantle contains the lower portion of the lithosphere, the asthenosphere, and the mesosphere. The crust is made of the upper portion of the lithosphere.

The asthenosphere is the layer of Earth that lies at a depth 60-150 mi (100-250 km) beneath Earth's surface.
The asthenosphere begins at around 100-150 km depth in the Earth. This is below the lithosphere, which consists of the crust and the uppermost mantle (the plates in plate tectonics).The asthenosphere is in the mantle, but it is still unclear how much of the mantle (which goes down to a depth of ~2900 km) is actually part of the asthenosphere.
They don't. Hurricanes are an atmospheric phenomenon. Their effects underground only go as far as recharging groundwater supplies, which don't come anywhere close to the depth of the asthenosphere.
The asthenosphere is the lower portion of the Earth's mantle. Its temperature ranges from 1000 degrees Celsius to 2500 degrees Celsius.

The asthenosphere is the region of the upper mantle of the Earth. With a base depth of about 700 kilometers, it is involved in plate tectonic movement and isotactic adjustments, seismic waves pass through slowly and a small percentage of melt.

A circle has no starting or ending point of a circle. Hope this helps!
