conditions.
The ratio of air's water-vapor content to its capacity to hold water vapor at that same temperature is the
Which clouds are often associated with thunder and lightning
Along a front which type of air is always forced upward
Which phenomenon is associated with surface temperatures in the eastern pacific that are colder than average
La Nina can have a devastating effect under certain conditions:
the trade winds are stronger than normal, causing surface waters in
the equatorial Pacific to be colder than average, with upwelling
occurring as far as the Central Pacific.
Which type of condensation nuclei are most likely to cause clouds to form
Cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) are usually Sulfate aerosol (SO42- and methanesulfonic acid droplets).
