Atmosphere
The Troposphere
Which layer is responsible for the weather on earth?
The weather of a cold front is very cold and contains a lot of storms.
What is the weather of a cold front?
When the ground is not porous
What causes runoff.
Anemometer
What measures wind speed?
A cloud that is long and gray?
The Stratosphere
Which layer has the ozone layer?
The warm front weather is actually warm and contains very light rain.
What type of weather is in a warm front?
Precipitation
What happens when water in clouds gets heavy.
barometer/Sling psychrometer
What measures relative humidity?
Cumulonimbus
What is the cloud that can result in severe thunderstorm.
The Mesosphere.
Which is the coldest layer?
In meteorology, an occluded front is a weather front formed during the process of cyclogenesis, when a cold front overtakes a warm front. When this occurs, the warm air is separated from the cyclone center at the Earth's surface. The point where the warm front and the occluded front meet is called the triple point.
What is an occluded front?
The water starts condensating.
What happens to water as it enters the clouds.
Rain gauge
What measures the amount of precipitation.
Cirrus
The cloud with the highest elevation
The Thermosphere.
Which is the hottest layer in the atmosphere?
A stationary front forms when a cold front or warm front stops moving. This happens when two masses of air are pushing against each other but neither is powerful enough to move the other. Winds blowing parallel to the front instead of perpendicular can help it stay in place.
What is a stationary front.
Snow
What happens to water as it is frozen in the air all the time until it touches the ground?
Satellites
What records data and uses it to find out the weather?
Cirrocumulus
one of the three main genus-types of high-altitude tropospheric clouds, the other two being cirrus and cirrostratus. They usually occur at an altitude of 5 kilometres to 12 kilometres. Like lower altitude cumuliform and strato cumuliform clouds,
The Exosphere.
Which is closest to space?
A cold front.
What happens when a warm air mass goes over a cold air mass?
Groundwater
What is it called when water is in the ground stored
Thermometer
What measures temperature?
Altocumulus
what is a middle-altitude cloud genus that belongs mainly to the stratocumuliform physical category characterized by globular masses or rolls in layers or patches, the individual elements being larger and darker than those of cirrocumulus and smaller than those of stratocumulus.
