Top layer of soil is called?
The top layer of soil where grass grows is called Humus. The next layer is the topsoil, and the layer after that is the subsoil.
Which layer is called the topmost layer of the atmosphere?
exosphere
What are 2 outer layers of earth called?
The first layer, or the outermost layer, is called the crust, whilst the second layer directly under the crust is called the mantle.
When a layer or several layers of rock are missing from a rock layer sequence this is called a what?
It is called an uncomformity.
What the third layer of the earths atmosphere is called?
The third layer of Earth's atmosphere is called the Mesosphere.
What layer does not contain the northern lights?
The Northern Lights occur in the ionosphere, the highest level of the atmosphere, so all the others layer usually do NOT contain the Northern Lights.
What is the layer of the atmosphere northern lights?
The ionosphere is responsible for the northern light. The ionosphere is the outermost layer of the thermosphere.
In which layer of the atmosphere does the northern lights form?
The Thermosphere
What layer of the atmosphere contains northern lights?
Thermosphere (Ionosphere).
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)
What other layer is found in the themosphere?
This layer contains the ionosphere, which causes the northern lights and the reflection of radio waves. APEX
If there were not a hole in the Ozone could the Northern Lights exist as they do?
The Northern Lights are not affected by the ozone layer. Auroras are caused by charged solar particles colliding with atoms of oxygen and nitrogen in the ionosphere.
Is the stratosphere above the troposhere?
Yes. The troposhere is the first layer of the atmosphere.Then the stratoshere(where the ozone layer is located).Next is the mesosphere,where meteors that enter the atmosphere burn up. Then there is the thermosphere.After the thermosphere there is the exosphere, and the last layer(which is very thin)is the magnetosphere. It is earth's magnetic field. It also causes the northern lights! Hope this novel helped.
Which of earth's spheres produce southern lights?
The Earth's spheres that produce Southern Lights is the Thermosphere. This layer of air is hot and thin. The Aurora Borealis also occurs in this layer.
Top layer of soil is called?
The top layer of soil where grass grows is called Humus. The next layer is the topsoil, and the layer after that is the subsoil.
Does northern light and lightning are the same?
No, the northern lights are a phenomenon that typically occurs in the thermosphere, the second highest layer of the atmosphere. The northern lights are colorful curtains of light caused by charged particles from the sun being channeled into the upper atmosphere near the north magnetic pole by the planet's magnetic field, these particles then interact with gasses in the thermosphere to produce light in various colors. Lightning is a phenomenon that occurs in the troposphere, the lowest layer of the atmosphere. Lightning is a massive discharge of static electricity that results from interactions of ice crystals and water droplets in thunderstorms. More rarely lighting can occur in the ash cloud of a volcanic eruption.
Is the sky called the ozone layer?
No, the sky is not called ozone layer. Ozone layer is a specific layer inside the stratospheric region of the atmosphere.
