Troposphere
100
The barrier between the exosphere and the thermosphere?
What is exopause?
100
The boundary between the mesosphere and the thermosphere.
What is mesopause?
100
These are visible in the mesosphere.
What are meteors?
100
The name of the gas that the stratosphere contains higher levels of.
What is ozone?
100
Masses of condensed water in the troposphere.
What are cumulus clouds?
200
The part of the exosphere which can be seen from Earth.
What is geocorona?
200
This makes it difficult to measure temperature.
What is thin air?
200
These are reflected to Earth in the Mesosphere.
What are radio waves?
200
The ozone destroying chemicals.
What are chlorofluorocarbons?
300
The lowest part of the exosphere.
What is exobase?
300
This layer contains a layer of charge particles that can help carry radio waves.
What is ionosphere?
300
What meteors do in the mesosphere.
What is burn?
300
Clouds that appear in the lower stratosphere near the poles in the winter.
What is polar stratospheric clouds?
300
This affects wind patterns.
What is latitude?
400
This is cause of extreme differences in the temperatures in the exosphere.
What is solar radiation?
400
The main source of the thermosphere's heat.
What is solar radiation?
400
The temperature decreases while this increases.
What is altitude?
400
A rare type of electrical discharge akin to lightning.
What are blue jets?
400
A type of breeze that forms during the night and flows toward the sea.
What is land breeze?
500
Two light gases that primarily make up the exosphere.
What are hydrogen and helium?
500
The most abundant gas in the thermosphere.
What is nitrogen?
500
The end of the mesosphere.
What is mesopause?
500
These molecules in the stratosphere absorb ultraviolet light from the sun.
What are oxygen molecules?
500
This is a windless, rainy zone near the equator.
What is the doldrums?
