part: #Kennelly-Heaviside_layer__Heaviside_layer__E_layer__E_region a region of the ionosphere (from 50 to 90 miles up) that reflects radio waves of medium length
part: #hemisphere half of the terrestrial globe
part: #Van_Allen_belt a belt of charged particles (resulting from cosmic rays) above the Earth trapped by the Earth's magnetic field
part: #hydrosphere the watery layer of the earth's surface; includes water vapor
part: #body_of_water__water the part of the earth's surface covered with water (such as a river or lake or ocean); "they invaded our territorial waters"; "they were sitting by the water's edge"

part: #sea a division of an ocean or a large body of salt water partially enclosed by land
part: #bay an indentation of a shoreline larger than a cove but smaller than an gulf
part: #gulf an arm of a sea or ocean partly enclosed by land; larger than a bay
part: #inlet__recess an arm off of a larger body of water (often between rocky headlands)
part: #dry_land__dryland__land__earth__solid_ground__solidground__terrafirma the solid part of the earth's surface; "the plane turned away from the sea and moved back over land"; "the earth shook for several minutes"; "he dropped the logs on the ground"
part: #lithosphere__geosphere the solid part of the earth
part: #core.midpoint the central part of the earth
part: #Earth's_crust__crust the outer layer of the Earth
part: #asthenosphere the lower layer of the crust
part: #mantle.layer the layer of the earth between the crust and the core
part: #lower_mantle__lowermantle the deeper part of the mantle
part: #upper_mantle__uppermantle the upper part of the mantle
part: #Earth's_surface__surface the outermost level of the land or sea; "earthquakes originate far below the surface"; "three quarters of the Earth's surface is covered by water"
part: #body_of_water__water the part of the earth's surface covered with water (such as a river or lake or ocean); "they invaded our territorial waters"; "they were sitting by the water's edge"
part: #opening.space__gap an open or empty space in or between things; "there was a small opening between the trees"; "the explosion made a gap in the wall"
part: #sky outer space as viewed from the earth
part: #cloud.atmospheric_phenomenon a visible mass of water or ice particles suspended at a considerable altitude
