Cloud formation is dependant upon the temperature and humidity of the atmosphere in the region. If there is no water in the air, no clouds can form.

What causes cloud formation?
When water evaporates into vapor it makes clouds...
Is it possible to prevent formation of Clouds?
yes nuke it out of the sky such as sucking the clouds into a vacumm cleaner
How does humidity relate to cloud formation?
When the temperature of the air matches the dewpoint temperature clouds are expected to form.If the temperature is above 0 then the cloud is made of water droplets. When the temperature is below 0 than the cloud would be made up of snow crystals or super cooled water.
What is released as sensible heat during the formation of clouds?
Latent heat.
Do clouds occur when moist air is cooled by compression or expansion?
Clouds occur when moist air is cooled. This usually a fall in barometric pressure, or expansion in our atmosphere. There are other factors at work, however, one of them is called adiabatic heating and cooling. When a volume of air is compressed, its temperature rises, and when it is decompressed, or expanded, then it cools. In the case of cloud formation, it is the drop in temperature by adiabatic cooling, and the content of moisture in the air, that make the difference in how clouds are formed.
Does the temperature change cloud formations?
how can changes in temperature and /or air pressure result in the formation of clouds
How does temperature affect the formation of clouds?
Water vapor in the cool air condenses in to tiny droplets of water, forming clouds.
What temp does clouds form?
Condensation (cloud formation) will occur when dew point temperature equals ambient temperature.
Have a deate on The effects of no clouds formation?
the effects of no clouds formation
How off the ground are clouds?
Clouds actually start to form at a place called the LCL (lifting condensation level) The LCL is dependent on altitude, humidity, elevation and temperature. Clouds start to form above the LCL
The interstellar clouds called molecular clouds are .?
Molecular clouds are interstellar clouds whose size and density permits the formation of molecules. Molecular clouds are called Stellar Nurseries if a star formation is occuring within it.
How and why is clouds forming in the sky a physical change?
because condensation is simply just a change of the water temperature in the air. a temperature change is a physical change. clouds form when the water vapor condenses, so therefore, cloud formation is a physical change.
What step of the water cycle indicates the formation of clouds?
Condensation indicates formation of clouds. It is the 2nd step of water cycle.
What leads to the formation of clouds?
evaporation from the ocean is carried up to the clouds.
Does temperature affect clouds?
Yes, clouds are affected by temperature.
What is the phenomenon for formation of clouds?
Water
What is the example of condensation in the water cycle?
the formation of cloudsthe formation of clouds
