terrestrial ionosphere
1Ionosphere — The ionosphere is a part of the upper atmosphere, comprising portions of the mesosphere, thermosphere and exosphere, distinguished because it is ionized by solar radiation. It plays an important part in atmospheric electricity and forms the inner …
2Terrestrial stationary waves — are a phenomenon arising in the Earth s interior space because of the conductive ionosphere s action as a waveguide. They were considered by Nikola Tesla to be his most important discovery. The limited dimensions of the earth cause this waveguide …
