Interpretin maps/tools/clouds
Is measured in either centimeters or inches with a rain gauge
Precipitation
This is when a warm air mass collides and rides over a cold mass
Warm Front
Water enters the atmosphere as water vapor through evaporation and transpiration
Evaporation/Transpiration
Which layer contains the the ozone layer?
Stratosphere
A form of oxygen found in the stratosphere
Ozone
Is measured in miles per hour with an anemometer
Wind Speed
This happens when neither a warm or a cold mass moves moves at a frontal boundary
Stationary Front
Forms when water vapor condenses directly onto a surface
Dew
This layer is the furthest away from earth surface
Exosphere
Important gases for weather conditions found in the troposphere
Dioxide
What is formed at medium or low elevation
Stratus
Condensation happens in the atmosphere as water vapor rises in the atmosphere and changes to either water droplets or ice crystals
Condensation/Crystallization
This layer is located closest to earth's surface
Troposphere
These play an insignificant role
Trace gases
What's formed at medium or low elevation
Cumulus
If precipitation falls on land surfaces it always attempts to move back toward sea level as surface-water flow or groundwater flow
Run-off
Clouds are in this layer
Troposphere
What's wispy clouds usually consisting on ice crystals
Cirrus
After condensation occurs water droplets fall in various forms of precipitation depending upon weather conditions
Precipitation
Which layer is the hottest?
Thermosphere
