The ionosphere is located approximately in the same region as
the top half of the mesosphere and the entire thermosphere in the
upper atmosphere, from about 40 mi (60 km), continuing upward to
the magnetosphere.

Definition1/15
Surface currents are caused by wind, and affected by the
rotation of the Earth and the gravity of the moon (tides). When the
oceans are deep, convection within the layers can also affect the
flow of currents.
* While wind currents are greatly affected by uneven heating of
the Earth's surface, there is no corresponding heating of the ocean
bottom by the Sun. So currents do not form spontaneously at
depth.
