Altitude affects the composition of clouds because the troposphere is very cold, hence the clouds up higher are made of ice crystals.
Cirrus clouds are high-altitude clouds that form when strong winds blow the clouds into long, wispy streaks. These clouds are often feathery in appearance and indicate that turbulent weather may be approaching due to the high wind speeds at that altitude.
A nephoscope is an instrument used to measure the altitude and angle of clouds in the sky by visually tracking their movement relative to the instrument. By observing the movement of clouds against the gridded field of view of the nephoscope, the observer can estimate the cloud base height and direction.
The change in pressure is highly affected by altitude.
stupid people
Altitude has a large affect on the air pressure and air density. Air density reduces with altitude and air pressure reduces with altitude as well.
No, normally they are made of water.
by shape and altitude (: Clouds are grouped by shape and altitude.
Temperature Pressure Compostition
Clouds at high altitude use the prefix cirro while clouds at middle altitude use the prefix alto. I know this is not in the question but clouds at low altitude don't use any specific prefix. I am also in love with Arturo B.
stratus, stratocumulus, and nimbostratus clouds
Clouds are categorized based on their appearance and altitude. Appearance categories include cirrus, cumulus, and stratus. Altitude categories include high-level clouds, mid-level clouds, and low-level clouds.
Altitude affects the composition of clouds because the troposphere is very cold, so the clouds up higher are made of ice crystals. The clouds in the lower sections are made of water droplets or a mixture of water droplets and ice crystals.
by altitude...you should know this
The cirrus clouds, cirrocumulus clouds, cirrostratus clouds, and cumulonimbus clouds.
The cirrus clouds, cirrocumulus clouds, cirrostratus clouds, and cumulonimbus clouds.
Cirrus clouds are at a high altitude.
Stratus clouds typically form at the lowest altitudes. These clouds are layered and can bring steady rain or drizzle. Other low-altitude clouds include cumulus clouds, which are fluffy and white with flat bases.
