thermosphere in English

noun
1
the region of the atmosphere above the mesosphere and below the height at which the atmosphere ceases to have the properties of a continuous medium. The thermosphere is characterized throughout by an increase in temperature with height.
There are no significant sources of heat in the mesosphere as there are in the stratosphere below and the thermosphere above.
