neutrosphere

The atmospheric shell from the earth's surface upward in which the atmospheric constituents are for the most part not ionized, that is, electrically neutral.

The region of transition between the neutrosphere and the ionosphere is somewhere between 70 and 90 km, depending on latitude and season.
