Adiabatic Temperature Changes and Expansion
                    and Cooling

   Temperature change
   Dry adiabatic rate
   Heating or cooling of saturated air
   Wet adiabatic rate
   Slow cooling by the adding of latent heat

Orographic Lifting
  Land masses makes air flow over it
  Rainiest places are the cause of this
  Most moister is lost by the time the air reaches the
   other side

Convergence
   Collision of different air masses to make air rise
   Causes
   Cloud development
   Precipitation

Localized Convective Lifting

 Unequal heating
 Pockets warming
 Particles rising called Thermals




          http://www.richhoffmanclass.com/chapter
          4.html
Stability

 Stabile air stays
 Unstable air rises
 Clouds will not form there is unstable air

   Saturated air
   It forms in dew, fog, or clouds
   Occurs when air reaches dew point

/tut_folder/nick_tutorial/                  /hydro.htm
Types of Clouds
 Cirrus clouds wispy, slim, and high clouds
 Cumulus clouds round, individual air masses middle and low altitude
 Classified on the basis of formation and height




               http://eo.ucar.edu/webweather/cloud3.ht
               ml
High Clouds

   Cirrus, cirrostratus, and cirrocumulus clouds
   Slim, whitish clouds
   Made of ice crystals
   Cirrus clouds are sometimes followed by a storm




http://www.weatherreport.com/Local-   http://eo.ucar.edu/kids/sky/clouds3.htm
weather-forecasts-Cloud-Reading.asp
Middle Clouds


   Altocumulus clouds
   2,000 to 6,000 meters high
   Big dense curved clouds
                                              http://www.ifimages.com/public/imag
                                              39051/view.html

ulus_clouds2_-_NOAA.jpg                     Clouds.asp
Low Clouds

   Stratus, stratocumulus, nimbostratus clouds
   Sometimes includes light precipitation
   Fog like layer




                                             http://www.windows2universe.org/earth/
http://urbanext.illinois.edu/kalani/18.cfm   Atmosphere/clouds/stratocumulus.html
Clouds of Vertical Development

 The category where that
  clouds don’t fit
 Low elevation range
 Sometimes ascend up to
  mid and high altitudes



http://www.free-online-private-pilot-
ground-school.com/Aviation-Weather-
Principles.html
Fog
 Similar to a cloud
 A cloud with its base at or near the ground
 The denser the tougher to see




http://www.brainharmonycenter.com/brai   http://outofthefog.net/
n-fog.html
Cold Cloud Precipitation

 Two physical processes
 Suppercooling- when precipitation freezes when it
  touches a solid surface
 Supper saturated – when relative
  humidity surpasses 100%

Warm Cloud Precipitation

 Collision-coalescence process makes rainwater
 Salt particles absorb water vapor taking it out of the
  air
 Often big droplets form.

Rain and Snow

   Rain means water that falls from a cloud
   Snow made of individual crystals




http://aumusiclibrary.wordpress.com/201   http://blog.thomaslaupstad.com/2008/01
1/02/28/rain-helens-picks-for-a-rainy-    /09/picture-of-snow-falling-and-a-lonely-
afternoon/                                tree-in-northern-norway/
Sleet, Glaze and Hail

   Sleet- The fall of small translucent ice partials
   Glaze- Raindrops becoming supercolled as they fall
    through subfreezing air near the ground
   Hail- Water vapor that go through a processes of
    freezing then pushed up making it bigger every time
    it goes through
