The Mysteries of the Ionosphere: Exploring its Layers
Intro to ionosphere
D Layer: The Absorption Layer
F Layer: The Highest Layer The F layer , also known as the Appleton layer, is the highest ionospheric layer, extending from about 150 to 600 miles above the Earth's surface. It is divided into two sub- layers: F1 and F2. The F layer is significant for its ability to reflect high- frequency radio waves, enabling long- distance communication. Studying the F layer provides valuable insights into ionospheric behavior and its impact on radio communication.
