This region can be modeled as the outer edge of a waveguide in which sferic waves can propagate and Schumann resonances can occur.
This region can be modeled as the outer edge of a waveguide in which sferic waves can propagate and Schumann resonances can occur. Modulated heating is used to generate ELF and VLF waves in this region by the HAARP project. One structure that connects this region to one above are field aligned and forms a z-pinch; that is the Birkeland current. The interaction of Lyman-alpha radiation with nitric oxide causes increased (*) electron density in this region's D layer. Also consisting of an F layer and a E layer, which is also called the KennellyHeaviside layer, this region is notable for its refraction and reflection of radio waves. For 10 points, name this layer of the atmosphere which forms the aurora borealis where it meets the magnetosphere and is composed of many electrically charged molecules.
