What is the difference between high medium and low altitude in clouds?
Clouds are categorized by their altitude in the atmosphere: low-altitude clouds form below 2,000 meters (6,500 feet), medium-altitude clouds range from 2,000 to 6,000 meters (6,500 to 20,000 feet), and high-altitude clouds exist above 6,000 meters (20,000 feet). Low clouds, like stratus and cumulus, are typically associated with precipitation, while medium clouds, such as altostratus, can indicate changing weather. High clouds, including cirrus and cirrostratus, are usually thin and wispy, often signaling fair weather but can also indicate approaching storms. Each type has distinct characteristics and weather implications based on its altitude.
What type of cloud is found at high altitudes and form when the wind is strong?
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.
How does nephoscope measure?
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.
How does altitude affect phase change?
The change in pressure is highly affected by altitude.
How does altitude affect wind affect of a place?
stupid people
How does altitude affect composition of clouds?
No, normally they are made of water.
How are clouds grouped?
by shape and altitude (: Clouds are grouped by shape and altitude.
What are the three factors affect the formation of magma?
Temperature Pressure Compostition
What is the prefix for clouds at high and middle altitude?
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.
What kind of clouds bring that low altitude and high altitude?
stratus, stratocumulus, and nimbostratus clouds
How are clouds categorized based on their appearance and altitude?
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.
How does altitude affect 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.
What are clouds classifies by?
by altitude...you should know this
Clouds are classified by their shape and what else?
Clouds are classified by their shape and altitude. The main types include cirrus (high-altitude), cumulus (puffy, typically low-altitude), and stratus (layered, low-altitude). Additionally, clouds can be categorized based on their appearance and the processes that form them, such as nimbostratus for rain-producing clouds.
What are the four classes of clouds based on altitude?
The cirrus clouds, cirrocumulus clouds, cirrostratus clouds, and cumulonimbus clouds.
What are four classes of clouds based on altitude?
The cirrus clouds, cirrocumulus clouds, cirrostratus clouds, and cumulonimbus clouds.
Are cirrus clouds low are high?
Cirrus clouds are at a high altitude.
