Scientific paper

It is shown that the height of the turbopause, the isotherm, and the exobase of Titan and Io is very sensitive to the temperature. Therefore models of the vertical structure of these moons' atmospheres cannot be constructed until precise data on their chemical composition and temperature are available. A method for detecting variations in the structure of the atmosphere and ionosphere of Io is proposed.
