The only layer I could think of would be the Thermosphere. The reason why this part of the atmosphere is so hot is that it is the top layer of the atmosphere.

Which layer of the earth's atmosphere has a temperature as high as 2000 c?
The temperature in the Thermosphere can rise to 2,000° C.
What is the name of the uppermost layer of the atmosphere and why does it feel so cold there even though the pressure can be very high?
The pressure in the uppermost layer of the atmosphere is NOT very high- it is very low.
What layer of atmosphere has the highest temperature?
The thermosphere is the "hottest" layer of the Earth's atmosphere. As the outermost layer with substantial numbers of molecules, it receives the most direct radiation from the Sun. However, despite the high molecular temperatures measured in this layer (as high as 2500°C or 4530°F), the matter is tenuous compared to the lower atmosphere. An object within the thermosphere would absorb very little total heat energy. Almost all satellites, and the International Space Station, orbit within the thermosphere. The layer periodically varies in thickness, stretching from about 80 kilometers in altitude to between 250 and 500 kilometers. The thermosphere.
What keeps the temperature from getting to high in hot places?
a jetstream which is in the atmosphere
What causes this layer to remain solid despite the high temperature?
The Earth's inner core reaches temperatures that are at times greater than 9000°F. What causes this layer to remain solid despite the high temperature?
Which layer of the earth's atmosphere has a temperature as high as 2000 c?
The temperature in the Thermosphere can rise to 2,000° C.
How is temperature affected if there is a high pressure in the atmosphere?
High pressure = High temperature
What is the name of the uppermost layer of the atmosphere and why does it feel so cold there even though the pressure can be very high?
The pressure in the uppermost layer of the atmosphere is NOT very high- it is very low.
What layer of the earths atmosphere is a high concentration of gas that shares the same name?
The ozone layer.
What is high level ozone?
High level ozone or good ozone. It is the layer of atmosphere.
What is it when the layer of the stratosphere with a high concentration of ozone?
The layer of atmosphere is ozone layer. It contains a pool of ozone molecules acting as a shield.
Why rockets can resist extreme high temperature?
with strong outer shells,rockets can resist the atmosphere's extremely high temperature created by their rapid movement through the atmosphere
What is ozone later?
The ozone layer is a layer in Earth's atmosphere which contains relatively high concentrations of ozone (O3).
How high up in the atmosphere is the ozone layer?
The ozone layer is 12 - 15 km above the earths surface
Why ozone layer is a pollutan when it is in the lower atmosphere and not a pollutant when in high?
Ozone layer is a pollutant when it is in lower atmosphere because there it does not protect us. The stratospheric ozone is a good one.
Venus atmosphere has what?
Compared to Earth's, it has:* A high pressure * An extremely high temperature
What planet has high carbon dioxide atmosphere and a high temperature surface?
Venus
