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
Which scientific unit of measure is not named for a scientist of inventor?
liter, meter, candela (light), gram, second, atmosphere (air pressure)
What is the outer crust?
The outer crust is the final layer around the earth. It is also the thinnest layer
Holmium was named after what scientist?
Holmium was not named after a scientist, it was actually named after the Latin name for Stockholm.
Is the Iceman named Otzi?
Yes, that is true, but THEY named him Otzi.
Which layer of the atmosphere is named after its high temperature?
The only layer I could think of would be the Thermosphere. The reason why this part of the atmosphere is so hot is that it is the top layer of the atmosphere.
Is there any layer of atmosphere named ozone sphere?
There is not actually a layer but a layer within a layer. The ozone layer is a shield of ozone molecules present inside the stratospheric region of the atmosphere. It protects us from the harmful ultraviolet radiations of the sun.
Why is the ozone layer named the ozone layer?
Ozone layer contains ozone in it. Therefore, it is named so.
What is the layer of the atmosphere directly above the troposphere?
stratosphereThe atmospheric layer above the troposphere is the stratosphere. It extends to about 30-35 miles above the earth's surface, and is the most stable layer.
Why does the Atmosphere have so many layers?
The atmosphere has different layers due to variations in temperature and composition at different altitudes. These layers are named based on these differences, such as the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere. Each layer plays a unique role in Earth's atmospheric processes.
What is the first layer of the earth's atmosphere called?
There are five different layers in the earth atmosphere. First layer - Named the Troposphere, it is the lowest layer of the atmosphere and begins at the surface and extends to between 7 km (23,000 ft) at the poles and 17 km (56,000 ft) at the equator. Second layer - Named the Stratosphere, extends from the troposphere's 7-17 km (4.3-11 mi; 23,000-56,000 ft) range to about 51 km (32 mi; 170,000 ft). Though part of the Stratosphere, the ozone layer is considered as a layer of the Earth's atmosphere in itself because its physical and chemical composition is far different from the Stratosphere. Temperature increases with height. Third layer - Named the Mesosphere, extends from about 50 km (31 mi; 160,000 ft) to the range of 80-85 km (50-53 mi; 260,000-280,000 ft). Temperature also decreases with height, reaching −100 °C (−148.0 °F; 173.1 K) in the upper mesosphere Fourth layer - Named the Thermosphere, ranged from 80-85 km (50-53 mi; 260,000-280,000 ft) to over 640 km (400 mi; 2,100,000 ft). Temperature increasing with height. And although the temperature can rise to 1,500 °C (2,730 °F), one would not feel warm because of the extremely low pressure Fifth layer - Named the Exosphere, the furthest most layer ranging from 500-1,000 km (310-620 mi; 1,600,000-3,300,000 ft) up to 10,000 km (6,200 mi; 33,000,000 ft), and contains free-moving particles

What is earths atomsphere?
Earth's Atmosphere was named ''Blue Sky'' Because the atmosphere is Blue.

What is Internal layer between earths mantle and inner core?
I think there is a layer called the Gutenberg Discontinuity named after a german seismologist named Beno Gutenberg between lower mantle and outer core.
The Coanda effect was named after which Russian aerodynamics pioneer?
The Coanda effect was named after the Russian aerodynamics pioneer Henry Coanda. The effect is the tendency of of a fluid jet to be attracted to a nearby surface.
