WHAT DOES MESOSPHERIC MEAN IN ENGLISH?

mesospheric

Mesosphere

The mesosphere is the layer of the Earth's atmosphere that is directly above the stratopause and directly below the mesopause. In the mesosphere temperature decreases with increasing height. The upper boundary of the mesosphere is the mesopause, which can be the coldest naturally occurring place on Earth with temperatures below 130 K. The exact upper and lower boundaries of the mesosphere vary with latitude and with season, but the lower boundary of the mesosphere is usually located at heights of about 50 kilometres above the Earth's surface and the mesopause is usually at heights near 100 kilometres, except at middle and high latitudes in summer where it descends to heights of about 85 kilometres. The stratosphere, mesosphere and lowest part of the thermosphere are collectively referred to as the "middle atmosphere", which spans heights from approximately 10 kilometres to 100 kilometres. The mesopause, at an altitude of 80–90 km, separates the mesosphere from the thermosphere—the second-outermost layer of the Earth's atmosphere.

Definition of mesospheric in the English dictionary

The definition of mesospheric in the dictionary is of or relating to the atmospheric layer lying between the stratosphere and the thermosphere, characterized by a rapid decrease in temperature with height. Other definition of mesospheric is of or relating to the solid part of the earth's mantle lying between the asthenosphere and the core.
