Despite the fact that the mesosphere contains only about 0.1 per cent of the total mass of the atmosphere below 80 km (50 mi), it is important because of the ionization and chemistry which occur there.

Meteors Millions of meteors enter the atmosphere, an average of 40 tons per day.[4] Within the mesosphere most melt or vaporize as a result of collisions with the gas particles contained there. This results in a higher concentration of iron...

The mesosphere (literally middle sphere) is the third highest layer in our atmosphere, occupying the region 50 km to 80 km above the surface of the Earth, above the troposphere and stratosphere, and below the thermosphere.

The discussions include a wide variety of topics, including spectrographic methods of observation, made either from rockets or from the ground, radio wave probings of the ionosphere, laboratory experiments dealing with recombination and diffusion, and probable photochemical reactions in the ionosphere and mesosphere.

Carbon dioxide in the mesosphere is an important absorber of terrestrial infra-red radiation. A group of wind systems is centred within the mesosphere, just above the stratopause, extending into the stratosphere and, to some extent, the thermosphere.
