Clouds

Cirrus clouds are thin and wispy, typically found at high altitudes and composed of ice crystals. Cumulus clouds are fluffy and often flat-based, developing vertically due to rising air currents. Stratus clouds are low-lying, layered clouds that cover the sky like a blanket and can bring prolonged overcast conditions.

This type of cloud is called a stratus cloud. Stratus clouds typically appear as a continuous, uniform layer covering the sky, often resembling a blanket or sheet. They are low-lying clouds that can bring overcast conditions and light precipitation.

High clouds with bases above 6000 m are typically classified as cirrus clouds. These clouds are thin and wispy in appearance, often occurring at high altitudes where temperatures are very cold. They are composed mainly of ice crystals and can indicate that a change in the weather may be approaching.

It was given to him by Zack, before he died, at the end of FFVII: Crisis Core.

Yes, Cumulonimbus clouds are often dark in appearance due to their great height and thickness, which can lead to light being blocked or absorbed within the cloud. Additionally, they can contain dense water droplets or ice crystals that contribute to their dark appearance.

A wispy cloud is a type of cloud that appears thin, feathery, and delicate in appearance. These clouds are typically high in the atmosphere and consist of ice crystals rather than water droplets. Wispy clouds are often seen in cirrus cloud formations.

The reason the tropopause is lower above the poles than the equator is...

The time it takes air to cool. The surface air-temperature at the equator is much higher than at the poles, meaning that the air rises further to reach the equilibrium required at the tropopause. Likewise, the air at the poles is cooler, and does not require as much room to rise.

The amount of energy the atmosphere absorbs depends on its composition, including greenhouse gas concentrations like carbon dioxide and water vapor, as well as aerosols and clouds. These factors determine how much incoming solar radiation is absorbed and retained by the atmosphere.

Carbon monoxide (CO) has 3 bonding clouds. The electron geometry around the carbon atom in CO is trigonal planar.

Clouds contain ice particles when the air temperature is cold enough for the water vapor in the cloud to freeze into ice crystals. This happens when the air temperature is below freezing point. The presence of ice particles in clouds can contribute to the formation of precipitation such as snow or hail.

Clouds form in the sky when water vapor condenses into water droplets. This process occurs when warm, moist air rises, cools, and reaches its dew point, causing the water vapor to condense and form visible clouds.

Feet. Low clouds form at an altitude of 2000 feet.

compared to the other clouds, no it is not. The heights of nimbostratus clouds are below 8,000 ft. (2400m.)

I think you mean 'Why do clouds stay in the sky?' An answer to that question is: because the water droplets are so small and so high in the atmosphere, they are able to stay airborne until they condense and gravity pulls them to the ground as rain or the droplets evaporate completely and become invisible water vapor.

Cumulonimbus clouds are also called thunderheads.

Without clouds, the Earth would experience more extreme temperatures, with hotter days and colder nights. There would also be a decrease in precipitation, affecting plant growth and water availability. Additionally, the absence of clouds would lead to more direct sunlight reaching the surface, potentially impacting ecosystems and climate patterns.

Water vapor, small dust or pollen particles, and cool temperatures are three key ingredients needed to form a cloud. When the water vapor condenses onto these particles in the atmosphere, it forms droplets that come together to create a cloud.

Altostratus clouds typically form at altitudes between 6,500 to 23,000 feet (2,000 to 7,000 meters) above ground level. They are mid-level clouds that often cover the sky in a thick, gray layer, blocking out the sun.

The name "nimbus" is given to a cloud because it comes from the Latin word for rain or storm. Clouds with the suffix "nimbus" typically produce precipitation, such as rain or snow, making them different from other types of clouds.

The name Raine is of French origin and means "queen" or "mighty." It is also sometimes used as a variant of the name Regina, which means "queen" in Latin.

Cumulus clouds are the type of clouds that resemble cotton balls. They are fluffy and white with flat bases.

Well why don't you start w/the names of certain types of cloud formations, then attach a word for a publication: especially something catchy or notable. Will this be read by the general public or a scientific community-Who is your target market? Ex: Cumulus Cut-ups, Nebulus Notes, etc. If your readers will be paying subscribers, maybe hold a contest in the 1st year to ask what they would name it.

Most stratus clouds made of water droplets are formed in the lower part of the troposphere, typically below 6,500 feet (2,000 meters) above the Earth's surface. These clouds form in stable atmospheric conditions, often covering large areas with a uniform, grayish appearance.

Radar can penetrate through clouds and precipitation, allowing it to generate images or maps of the ground beneath even when traditional optical sensors cannot. This makes radar a valuable tool for mapping areas covered in clouds, as it can provide data regardless of weather conditions.

There are two things going on to make some rain clouds to appear very dark. The first is that some clouds, especially thunderstorm clouds such as nimbocumulus clouds can tower to great heights with tops 15 to 20 km (50-60 thousand feet) above the earth. Plus these clouds, which tend to produce very heavy rains and hail are very dense, being full of water vapor and raindrops at lower altitudes and ice crystals at high altitude.

As a result, it is more difficult for sunlight to pass through these clouds than it is for light to pass through neighboring clouds which aren't as high and dense. More of the light is reflected back into space or sideways because there's more obstacles. Plus, there's more absorption of the light on its way through the cloud, because the light will bounce around very much and take a very long total path before finally coming out the bottom of the cloud.
