What are the types of clouds on Earth?
The main types of clouds on Earth are cirrus, cumulus, stratus, and nimbus. Cirrus clouds are high-altitude, wispy clouds. Cumulus clouds are fluffy and often indicate fair weather. Stratus clouds are low, layered clouds that can bring steady rain. Nimbus clouds are rain clouds that often bring precipitation.
How do clouds affect earth's energy budget?
Clouds play a crucial role in Earth's energy budget by reflecting sunlight back into space (called albedo effect) and trapping heat emitted by the Earth's surface. High, thin clouds tend to have a cooling effect by reflecting sunlight, while low, thick clouds tend to have a warming effect by trapping heat. Overall, clouds help regulate the temperature of the Earth by balancing incoming solar radiation and outgoing thermal radiation.
What are two ways in which clouds affect Earth's climate?
Clouds play a crucial role in Earth's climate by reflecting sunlight back into space, which helps cool the planet. They also trap heat emitted by the Earth, acting as a blanket to keep the planet warmer.
What are the four levels of cloud heights?
High cloud, middle cloud, low cloud, and anvil heat.
What are the four main categories of clouds?
1. Cumulus - Clouds with vertical development2. Cirrus - High Clouds3. Altostratus - Middle Clouds4. Stratus -Low Clouds

What are the different layers of clouds in the Earth's atmosphere?
The different layers of clouds in the Earth's atmosphere are classified into three main types: high clouds, middle clouds, and low clouds. High clouds are found at altitudes of 20,000 to 40,000 feet and include cirrus, cirrostratus, and cirrocumulus clouds. Middle clouds are located between 6,500 to 20,000 feet and consist of altocumulus and altostratus clouds. Low clouds are found below 6,500 feet and include stratus, stratocumulus, and nimbostratus clouds.
Are cirrus clouds low are high?
Cirrus clouds are at a high altitude.
WhAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LOW LEVEL CLOUDS AND HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS?
high clouds means there will be good weather and low clouds mean stormy weather
Are cummulus clouds high middle or low clouds?
middle clouds

Do high clouds produce hail and tornadoes?
No. Cumulonimbus do. The clouds are low-based and high-topped.

Are cumulus clouds low level?
no they are high
What type of clouds appear to be piled up from high to low?
Cumulus Clouds
Is fog an clouds part of the atmosphere?
Yes, but they are clouds that are not high up in the sky. They are low clouds!
