  2. TIMED - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TIMED

    The Mesosphere, Lower Thermosphere and Ionosphere (MLTI) region of the atmosphere to be studied by TIMED is located between 60 and 180 kilometres (37 and 112 mi) above the Earth's surface, where energy from solar radiation is first deposited into the atmosphere. This can have profound effects on Earth's upper atmospheric regions, particularly ...

  3. Thermosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermosphere

    The density of the Earth's atmosphere decreases nearly exponentially with altitude. The total mass of the atmosphere is M = ρ A H ≃ 1 kg/cm 2 within a column of one square centimeter above the ground (with ρ A = 1.29 kg/m 3 the atmospheric density on the ground at z = 0 m altitude, and H ≃ 8 km the average atmospheric scale height).

  5. Atmosphere of Earth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_Earth

    The thermosphere is the second-highest layer of Earth's atmosphere. It extends from the mesopause (which separates it from the mesosphere) at an altitude of about 80 km (50 mi; 260,000 ft) up to the thermopause at an altitude range of 500–1000 km (310–620 mi

  6. Thermopause - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermopause

    The thermopause is the atmospheric boundary of Earth's energy system, located at the top of the thermosphere. [1] The temperature of the thermopause could range from nearly absolute zero to 987.547 °C (1,810 °F).

  7. Heterosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterosphere

    The volume fraction of the main gases in Earth's atmosphere according to height. The heterosphere is above about 100 km in the graph. The heterosphere of Earth begins at about 100 km altitude and extends to the outer reaches of its atmosphere. [3] It incorporates most of the thermosphere and all of the exosphere. The major constituents of Earth ...

    [2] First half-box: Forward-side-together Second half-box: Backwards-side-together. Every step is with full weight transfer. During the second and fourth step it is advised the foot to travel along two sides of the box, rather than along its diagonal. [2] Rhythm varies, e.g., it is "1-2-3,4-5-6" in Waltz and "slow quick quick, slow quick quick ...

  9. Tropopause - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropopause

    The troposphere contains the boundary layer, and ranges in height from an average of 9 km (5.6 mi; 30,000 ft) at the poles, to 17 km (11 mi; 56,000 ft) at the Equator. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] In the absence of inversions and not considering moisture , the temperature lapse rate for this layer is 6.5 °C per kilometer, on average, according to the U.S ...
