what is the importance of ionosphere?why does temperature rise in the ionosphere?
Answers
Answer:
follow me
So temperature increases with height in the ionosphere region to the extent that by 150-200km, the Earth's atmosphere is extremely hot compared to surface temperatures. Different regions of the ionosphere make long distance radio communication possible by reflecting the radio waves back to Earth.
Answer:
The Ionosphere is part of Earth's upper atmosphere, between 80 and about 600 km where Extreme UltraViolet (EUV) and x-ray solar radiation ionizes the atoms and molecules thus creating a layer of electrons. the ionosphere is important because it reflects and modifies radio waves used for communication and navigation.
