Which process removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere

There are several. The main ones are:

  • Photosynthesis
  • Carbonate formation
  • Dissolution of carbon dioxide into seawater
Is the saying the higher the clouds the better the weather true

High clouds indicate the dry air and high pressure of fair weather.

so it is true

If the relative humidity is high and the temperature drops water vapor may

condense

What inturment is used to measure then wind

The instrument which is used to measure wind is a anemometer. This tool is used to determine the direction in which the wind is blowing.

Which type of cloud is tall and associated with thunderstorms

Cumulonimbus

What method of forecasting uses the effects of past weather conditions as part of its forecasting method

analog method

What type of air mass would produce warm dry weather in the summer

continental tropical

What is the dew point

The dew point is the temperature at which the air will become completely saturated. It is determined by the amount of moisture in the air, and the temperature. Fog will form when the temperature is close to the dew point.

Air conditioning is the perfect control system to maintain a steady atmospheric humidity in a unit. The atmospheric humidity is the quantity of water contained in the air in the form of vapours. When the amount of moisture held by air has reached the maximum by a giving temp, the air is said to b saturated and it is also called 'dew point'
It is the temperature of air at which the air can no longer contain all the moisture in it, and the moisture precipitates out as dew.
The definition of the word dew point is "the atmospheric temperature below which water droplets begin to condense and dew can form."

Which type of the following is true of clouds at medium altitudes

mostly water

What is the difference of the causes between a sea breeze and a land breeze

The only difference - is the direction of flow. A sea breeze blows from the sea onto the land. A land breeze flows in the opposite direction.

Which has the lowest albedo

A blacktop highway

What of following causes tornadoes

coo,dy air meeting warm, moist air

How does region has a low pressure and a high pressure system moves in. What is the best prediction about the weather from this information

How does a region has a low pressure and a high pressure system moves in. What is the best prediction about the weather from this information?

Which statement is true of jet streams

The polar jet stream lies between the polar easterlies and trade winds

When a cold air mass catches up with a warm air mass, the result is often a front

occluded

which is not part of the recipe for a thunderstorm to form

A cold front advancing
