Construction of atmosphere Версия для печати
The Troposphere (the bottom layer) - from terrestrial surface before height 9-18 km depending on geographical latitude and time of the year.

In troposphere distinguish:

layer near the ground (above 10 m)

frontier layer or layer of friction (before height 1-1.5 km)

free atmosphere (above layer of friction)

Tropopause (substratosphere) - a connecting layer

Stratosphere - before height 50-55 km; the intensive circulation of the air occurs in stratosphere with vertical motion; the water pair nearly no so облака do not appear; the maximum temperature in stratosphere - around 0°C.

Stratopause - a connecting layer

Mesosphere - before height 200-300 km; absorbs ultraviolet radiation a Sun so the temperature can reach very high levels in 1000...1500°K.

Mesopause - a connecting layer

Thermosphere (the ionosphere) - before height 800 km; the layer with high electric conductivity and maximum ionizing

Exosphere (outersphere) - above 800 km; the external layer, gradually transitory in interplanetary space; temperature reaches 3000°K
