What would happen to the hieght of the cloud base if the dewpoint temperature were lower?
The lifting condensation level (height of cloud base) would rise, in theory. That's assuming you lower the dew point throughout the atmospheric column.
What temp does clouds form?
Condensation (cloud formation) will occur when dew point temperature equals ambient temperature.
Is ozone crucial to the formation of clouds?
Ozone has nothing to contribute in cloud formation. It is all done in the troposphere layer.
Can you prevent the ash cloud from a volcano eruption when ice is concerned?
No. Ice does not create an ash cloud when a volcano erupts. You cannot prevent the formation of an ash cloud.
What causes Steady rain?
The formation of a Nimbostratus cloud otherwise known as Nimbus cloud causes steady rain. This type of cloud is 2,000 meters in thickness.
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 the relation between altitude of a base cloud and the temperature of the air at that altitude?
The base of the cloud occurs at the dewpoint temperature of the airmass. See: http://www.csgnetwork.com/estcloudbasecalc.html
What would happen to the height of the cloud base if the dewpoint temperature were lower?
The height of the cloud base would be higher because the low level moisture decreases.
What phenomenon does not require the air temperature to be at 0C?
cloud formation
Does cloud formation depend on temperature and air pressure or temperature and rainfall?
It's rainfall
What does the temperature of the land or water influence?
The water cycle and cloud formation.
Do air temperature and cloud formation vary in different places?
Of course they do.
What is clouds formation dependent on temperature and?
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.
Does the temperature change cloud formations?
how can changes in temperature and /or air pressure result in the formation of clouds
What would happen to the hieght of the cloud base if the dewpoint temperature were lower?
The lifting condensation level (height of cloud base) would rise, in theory. That's assuming you lower the dew point throughout the atmospheric column.
What three ingredients result in the formation of cloud?
Moisture, dust, and temperature changes!
Does the movement of air result in cloud formation or inhibit cloud formation?
Cloud formation in the highs and inhibit cloud formation in the lows.
