Clouds that form in layers?
Layered clouds, cirrocumulus clouds, are high level clouds. They form above 20,000 feet where it is cold. They are composed of ice crystals.
Why is the troposphere is called turbulent sphere?
In our atmosphere there are different layers and Troposphere is the lowest layer , which extend up to a height of 10 km. It is called turbulent sphere as it contains air (N2, O2, CO2 )much water vapours and clouds .
Clouds are named by their shape and?
by where they form in the atmosphere and their shape- ombudsmanHoward noted that there are three basic shapes to clouds:heaps of separated cloud masses with flat bottoms and cauliflower tops, which he named cumulus (Latin for heap);layers of cloud much wider than they are thick, like a blanket or a mattress, which he named stratus (Latin for layer);wispy curls, like a child's hair, which he called cirrus (Latin for curl).To clouds generating precipitation, he gave the name nimbus (Latin for rain).Clouds are found in three layers in the lower atmosphere. Thus, with four types of clouds and three layers, we come up with 12 major cloud types that have evolved from Howard's pioneering work.Heaps:Cumulus familyFair weather cumulusSwelling cumulusCumulus congestusLayers: Stratus familyStratusaltostratuscirrostratusLayered HeapsstratocumulusaltocumuluscirrocumulusPrecipitating cloudscumulonimbuscirrusnimbostratus

cirrus
What are white puffy clouds with flat bottoms called?
The clouds that are puffy masses formed by vertically rising air are commonly known as thunderheads. These clouds, with the scientific name of cumulonimbus, may produce severe weather such as lightning, hail, and even tornadoes.
What is the clouds that form in flat layers called?
Clouds in flat layers are called stratus.
Layers of rain cloud are called?

Which clouds look like curly wisps of hair?
Cirrus clouds, specifically cirrus uncinus clouds, can resemble curly wisps of hair. These high-altitude clouds form in the upper atmosphere and often have a thin, delicate appearance with distinct curly or wispy strands.

Sheet-shaped clouds are called?
Stratus clouds. They are low-level clouds that typically form in layers with a flat, uniform appearance. Stratus clouds often bring overcast or foggy weather.
What is the name of the cloud that covers large areas and form in layers?

How many cloud layers does Jupiter have?
Jupiter's atmosphere is divided into four main cloud layers: ammonia clouds, ammonium hydrosulfide clouds, water clouds, and ice clouds. These layers exist at different altitudes within the planet's atmosphere.
