Stratosphere Exosphere Ionosphere Thermosphere Troposphere Mesosphere the outermost layer of the Earth's atmosphere, where atmospheric pressure and temperature are low

Stratosphere Exosphere Ionosphere Thermosphere Troposphere Mesosphere the atmospheric layer between the troposphere and the mesosphere. It is characterized by a slight temperature increase with altitude and by the absence of clouds

Stratosphere Exosphere Ionosphere Thermosphere Troposphere Mesosphere the layer of the atmosphere located above part of the ionosphere (starting at the coldest part of the atmosphere) and below outer space; it consists of the exosphere and part of the ionosphere

Stratosphere Exosphere Ionosphere Thermosphere Troposphere Mesosphere the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere

Stratosphere Exosphere Ionosphere Thermosphere Troposphere Mesosphere the atmospheric layer between the mesosphere and the exosphere; it is part of the thermosphere

Stratosphere Exosphere Ionosphere Thermosphere Troposphere Mesosphere the atmospheric layer between the stratosphere and the ionosphere
