Clouds form when water starts to condense, so clouds eventually grow until they rain themselves to death-clouds mean rain.
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.
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

Clouds owe their existence to the presence of atmospheric?
Clouds are made out of atmospheric water vapor. They form in part due to cooling in the upper atmosphere.
What is the clouds that form in flat layers called?
Clouds in flat layers are called stratus.
What cloud form in layers?
Clouds that form in flat layers are known as Stratus clouds, from the Latin word strato, meaning" spread out."

What is the name of the cloud that covers large areas and form in layers?
The name of the cloud that covers large areas and forms in layers is called a stratus cloud. Stratus clouds are low-level clouds that appear as a continuous layer with a fairly uniform gray color.
Clouds that form in a blanket like layers are?
stratus clouds. They are low-level clouds that appear in a continuous layer and bring overcast conditions. Stratus clouds can sometimes produce light precipitation.
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.
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.
Staratus clouds are what?

What major clouds shape is found at the highest layers of the troposphere?
Cirrostratus clouds are found at the highest layers of the troposphere. These thin, wispy clouds form above 20,000 feet and are composed of ice crystals. They often cover large areas of the sky and can create halos around the sun or moon.
