There are 4 shade levels going from light to dark.

• Twilight or dusk is where the sun is 6° below the horizon (D layer is illumiated is this area and to 9° below the horizon),
  
• Nautical twilight the sun is 12° below the horizon; the horizon is still visible,
  
• Astronomical twilight sun is 18° below the horizon (F layer is illumiated is this area and to 20° below the horizon)
  
• Night

The Magnetic Equator is shown as a black line around the 0 degree equator line
The Magnetic Equator is important for Transequatorial Propogation and the magnetic field strengths are believed to be important for Sporadic-E Propagation.
