What are layers of curly clouds called?
You probably mean Cirrus clouds, which are clouds made of ice crystals. There're several variations, including Cirrostratus and Cirrocumulus, but the clouds with the most prominent "wisps" or "curles" are Cirrus.
Does rain come from a sweating cloud?
No. Rain comes from clouds, but the clouds do not sweat. Clouds are made of water droplets, ice crystals, or a combination of the two. Rain falls when ice crystals grow inside a cloud, melt, and fall to the ground.
Is cirrostratus cloud low-level medium-level or high-level?
Cirrus clouds are thin wispy clouds. They are over 6 kilometers up. It is freezing up there, so they are made of ice crystals. They can mean bad weather is on the way.
What are the cloud layers in order?
Clouds are classified into 4 main layers, with one layer which occurs extremely high up. They can be divided into the four 'families'. High clouds, which are Family A Middle clouds, which are Family B Low clouds, which are Family C Vertical clouds, which are Family D High clouds, which include ones such as Cirrocumulus and Cirrus clouds, occur at heights of around 30,000 feet. They generally have a very wispy appearance, generally due to the fact that a large portion of them are ice crystals. This is because the temperature at these altitudes can be well below freezing point. Middle clouds, such as the Altostratus cloud, are found at about 15,000 feet. The Altostratus cloud is generally grey or dark, like a rain cloud. However they are not so dark that you cannot see the sun through them! Low clouds include Cumulus, Stratocumulus and Cumulonimbus clouds. They are found around 6,500 feet, and are characterised by their much more defined 'cloud like' features. Cumulus clouds are the stereotypical cloud, quite heavy with a whispy edges. Cumulonimbus clouds however are storm clouds, and are very tall and dense. The heigh can reach well over 50,000 feet! The other cloud group appears in the mesosphere and the stratosphere, which is just below the mesosphere. They are typically made completely from ice due to the high altitudes.
What materials are used in the producing of Swarovski glass?
Swarovski crystals are made of 32% lead. Chemical coatings are used to make the different colors of the crystals. Authentic Swarovski crystals are only made in Austria.
High clouds made of ice crystals are what clouds?
i dont know xD
High clouds made of ice crystals are called?
Cirrus clouds.
Which type of clouds are high feathery clouds made up of ice crystals?
cirrus
Which cloud is made of ice crystals?
Cirrus clouds are primarily made out of ice crystals.
What is the name of the light feathery clouds above 20000 feet?
Cirrus clouds. This type is often called mare's tails. Made of ice crystals blown by winds at high altitude.Feathery clouds are called Cirrus clouds. Cirrus clouds are made of ice crystals instead of water droplets and form at altitudes between five and fourteen kilometers.
What are high clouds that look like wispy fibers called?
Those high clouds that resemble wispy fibers are known as cirrus clouds. They are typically made of ice crystals and are found at high altitudes in the atmosphere.
Which cloud type is made up of ice crystals?
Cirrus clouds are composed primarily of ice crystals. They appear wispy and thin with a feathery or fibrous texture, often high in the atmosphere.
What are white clouds made of tiny pieces of ice called?
White clouds made of tiny ice particles are called cirrus clouds. These clouds are composed of ice crystals that form at high altitudes in the atmosphere. Cirrus clouds are thin and wispy in appearance.
Very high feathery clouds are called?
Cirrus clouds. They are thin and wispy clouds found at high altitudes and are often made up of ice crystals. These clouds typically indicate fair weather but can also signal a change in the weather.
Why are clouds made of ice crystals rather than drops of water?
Clouds at high altitudes are cold enough for water vapor to freeze into ice crystals. The ice crystals can grow as they collide and stick together in the cloud, forming larger ice particles. In contrast, clouds at lower altitudes are warmer and tend to contain water droplets instead of ice crystals.
Which type of following cloud are high feathery clouds made of ice crystals?
stratus
What are the three types of clouds made of?
Clouds are made up of tiny water droplets or ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere. The three main types of clouds are cirrus (high-altitude clouds made of ice crystals), cumulus (puffy, cotton-like clouds), and stratus (layered clouds that can cover the sky).
