- Ionosphere - Wikipedia
The ionosphere ( aɪˈɒnəˌsfɪər ) [1][2] is the ionized part of the upper atmosphere of Earth, from about 48 km (30 mi) to 965 km (600 mi) above sea level, [3] a region that includes the thermosphere and parts of the mesosphere and exosphere The ionosphere is ionized by solar radiation

The ionosphere stretches roughly 50 to 400 miles above Earth's surface, right at the edge of space Along with the neutral upper atmosphere, the ionosphere forms the boundary between Earth's lower atmosphere — where we live and breathe — and the vacuum of space

Due to spectral variability of the solar radiation and the density of various constituents in the atmosphere, there are layers are created within the ionosphere, called the D, E, and F-layers
- The Ionosphere - Center for Science Education
Regions with higher concentrations of ions and free electrons occur at several different altitudes and are known, as a group, as the ionosphere There are three main regions of the ionosphere, called the D layer, the E layer, and the F layer

The name “ionosphere” was introduced first in the 1920s and was formally defined in 1950 by a committee of the Institute of Radio Engineers as “the part of the earth’s upper atmosphere where ions and electrons are present in quantities sufficient to affect the propagation of radio waves ”
- Ionosphere – Definition Detailed Explanation - Sentinel Mission
The ionosphere is a region of Earth’s upper atmosphere that is ionized by solar and cosmic radiation It is located between 30 and 600 kilometers above the Earth’s surface and is composed of a layer of charged particles known as ions
- Tracking Solar Flares
The ionosphere is defined as the layer of the Earth's atmosphere that is ionized by solar and cosmic radiation It lies 75-1000 km (46-621 miles) above the Earth
- Ionosphere - Wikiwand
The ionosphere is a shell of electrons and electrically charged atoms and molecules that surrounds the Earth, [19] stretching from a height of about 50 km (30 mi) to more than 1,000 km (600 mi) It exists primarily due to ultraviolet radiation from the Sun
