Cloud Level made up of cirrus, cirrostratus, and cirrocumulus.
What is High Clouds
100
Condition of water droplets in liquid state below zero degrees celcius.
What is supercooled
100
Clouds with its base at or very near the ground.
What is fog
100
The diameter of a Cloud Droplet.
What is less than 20 micrometers
100
Meteorology term that means drops of water that fall from a cloud and have a diameter of at least .5mm.
What is rain
200
Were the base of clouds of vertical development form.
What is the low hight range
200
One of the three basic cloud forms; they are sheets or layers that cover much or all of the sky.
What is stratus
200
When visibility may be only a few dozen meters or less.
What is dense fog
200
Temperature at which pure water suspended in air freezes.
What is -40 degress Celcius
200
Formed at very low temperatures, and are made up of individual six-sided ice crystals.
What is snow.
300
Clouds known for producing rain showers or thunderstorms.
What is cumulonimbus
300
One of the three basic cloud forms and high cloud types; thin, delicate, ice-crystal clouds often appearing as viel-like patches or thin, wispy fibers.
What is cirrus
300
The movement of air over a cold surface.
What is radiation cooling
300
One of the examples of a water-absorbing particle.
What is salt
300
Where hail is produced.
What is Cumulonimbus clouds
400
The level at which Nimbostratus clouds usaually exist.
What is low clouds
400
A theory of raindrop formation in warm clouds.
What is collision-coalescene process
400
Created when water vapor is added to the air.
What is Saturation
400
Temperature at which snowflakes usually melt before reaching the ground.
What is 4 degrees Celcius
400
The way the air temperature changes with altitude.
What is Temperature Profile
500
The three basic forms of clouds.
What is cirrus, cumulus, and stratus
500
A theory that realates the formation of precipitation to supercooled clouds, freezing nuclei, and the different saturation levels of ice and liquid water.
What is Bergeron Process
500
Creates most fog.
What is radiation cooling
500
The mechanism that forms raindrops.
What is collision-coalscene process
500
Layer of air near the ground that alows sleet to form with temperatures above freezing.
