Clouds are formed when warm air rises and cools, causing water vapor to condense into water droplets. Clouds are classified by their height or shape above the earth's surface. Clouds associated with rain or snow have "nimbus" in their name, such as cumulonimbus clouds which form thunderstorms or nimbostratus clouds which bring rain or snow. Precipitation occurs when cloud droplets grow too large and fall from the sky.
This document discusses various cloud formation processes including adiabatic temperature changes, orographic lifting, frontal wedging, convergence, localized convective lifting, stability, condensation, and precipitation processes like the Bergeron process and collision-coalescence process. It also covers cloud types like cumulus, cirrus, and stratus clouds as well as fog, rain, snow, sleet, glaze and hail.
This document discusses different types of clouds and how they form. It begins by describing high clouds like cirrus and contrails, then mid-level clouds such as cumulus and cumulonimbus. It explains that cumulonimbus clouds form on hot days and can produce hail. Lower level clouds like stratus and altocumulus are also mentioned. The document concludes by explaining the water cycle and how clouds transport water from one place to another through evaporation and condensation.
There are three main types of clouds: stratus clouds which form a blanket, cumulus clouds which are billowy and puffy, and cirrus clouds which are wispy and feather-like. Clouds can be named by their altitude using prefixes like cirro- for high altitudes and alto- for middle altitudes, or suffixes like -nimbus which indicate storms. Different types of precipitation fall depending on temperature, with rain falling in warm air, sleet forming when rain freezes before hitting the ground, snow falling in cold air, and hail stones growing in size as they are pushed high in the atmosphere and freeze in layers.
Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor in the air, measured as a percentage. Dew point is the temperature at which water vapor condenses to liquid or solid form, causing clouds to form. Different types of precipitation, like rain, snow, or hail occur when water droplets in clouds become too large for the clouds to support and fall to the earth's surface. There are three main types of clouds - cirrus, cumulus, and stratus - which form at different levels in the atmosphere and under varying weather conditions.
This document provides information about the different types of clouds for middle school students. It describes the key characteristics of 12 common clouds: cumulus, cumulonimbus, stratus, stratocumulus, altocumulus, altostratus, nimbostratus, cirrus, cirrocumulus, and cirrostratus. For each cloud type, it discusses their appearance, the atmospheric conditions needed for formation, and some basic facts. The document also includes learning activities like a video, worksheet, and quiz to help students learn to identify and understand the different cloud types.
This document discusses cloud classification and describes the different types of clouds. It begins by explaining the Latin prefixes used to classify clouds by altitude, such as "cirro-" for high-level clouds above 20,000 feet composed of ice crystals. Mid-level clouds between 6,500 and 20,000 feet use the prefix "alto-", and can contain water, ice, or a mix. Low clouds below 6,500 feet do not use a prefix. The document then describes the main types of high, mid, and low clouds such as cirrus, altostratus, stratocumulus, and cumulonimbus clouds. It explains the characteristic appearances and formations of each cloud type.
There are three main types of clouds: stratus clouds which form a blanket, cumulus clouds which are billowy and puffy, and cirrus clouds which are wispy and feather-like. Clouds can be named by their altitude using prefixes like cirro- for high altitudes and alto- for middle altitudes, or suffixes like -nimbus which indicate storms. The four main types of precipitation are rain, sleet, snow, and hail, which form depending on temperatures and whether water vapor condenses or freezes before reaching the ground. Rainfall amounts are measured using rain gauges, which is important information for farmers.
Weather refers to current atmospheric conditions including air pressure, wind, temperature, and humidity. Various factors such as the water cycle, sun, and interactions between air, water, and sun determine the state of the atmosphere. Clouds form when warm air rises and expands, cooling to the dew point and causing water vapor to condense around particles to form clouds. Different types of clouds like stratus, cumulus, and cirrus form at different altitudes and bring different weather conditions like fair skies or precipitation.
There are three main types of clouds: cirrus clouds, which are thin and wispy ice crystal clouds found very high in the sky; cumulus clouds, which are puffy cotton-like clouds that can signal either fair weather or rain depending on whether they are white or dark; and stratus clouds, which are the lowest, flat clouds that are often dark and can signal rain or fog if close to the ground.
Cirrus clouds are thin and wispy, moving from west to east and usually indicating fair weather. Stratus clouds are gray clouds that may cover the sky and resemble fog, sometimes drizzling without reaching the ground. Cumulus clouds are puffy and cotton-like, growing upward and potentially developing into thunderstorms. The document provides descriptions of different cloud types and a game to test cloud identification.
The document discusses different types of clouds. It describes stratus clouds as gray clouds resembling fog without reaching the ground. Cirrus clouds are thin and wispy, moving from west to east. Cirrostratus clouds are thin and sheet-like, allowing the sun and moon to be seen through them. Cumulus clouds are puffy and cotton-like, sometimes taking shapes.
Clouds can be classified based on their height and appearance. The main cloud types are cirrus (high, wispy), stratus (low, sheet-like), cumulus (low, puffy), and nimbus (rain-bearing). Cirrocumulus and altocumulus appear at middle altitudes in globular masses or rolls. Altostratus and stratocumulus form gray layers or patches. Cumulonimbus clouds produce thunderstorms with ice crystal tops and mushroom shapes. Clouds are differentiated based on their altitude, color, shape, and whether they produce precipitation.
Clouds
What are clouds?
A cloud is a large collection of very tiny droplets of water or ice crystals. The droplets are so small and light that they can float in the air.
Why do clouds float?
A cloud is made up of liquid water droplets. A cloud forms when air is heated by the sun. As it rises, it slowly cools it reaches the saturation point and water condenses, forming a cloud. As long as the cloud and the air that its made of is warmer than the outside air around it, it floats!
There are 3 main types of clouds:
Cirrus or thin feathery clouds
Stratus or layered clouds
Cumulus or fluffy clouds
Cirrus Clouds
Are the most common of the
high clouds. They are composed of ice and are thin, wispy clouds blown in high winds into long streamers. Cirrus clouds are usually white and predict fair to pleasant weather. By watching the movement of cirrus clouds you can tell from which direction weather is approaching. When you see cirrus clouds, it usually indicates that a change in the weather will occur within 24 hours.
Stratus Clouds
are uniform grayish clouds that often cover the entire sky. They resemble fog that doesn't reach the ground. Light mist or drizzle sometimes falls out of these clouds.
Cumulus Clouds
are white, puffy clouds that look like pieces of floating cotton. Cumulus clouds are often called "fair-weather clouds". The base of each cloud is flat and the top of each cloud has rounded towers. When the top of the cumulus clouds resemble the head of a cauliflower, it is called cumulus congestus or towering cumulus. These clouds grow upward and they can develop into giant cumulonimbus clouds, which are thunderstorm clouds.
The Importance of Clouds
Clouds help regulate Earth's energy balance by reflecting and scattering solar radiation and by absorbing Earth's infrared energy.
Clouds are required for precipitation to occur and, hence are an essential part of the hydrologic cycle.
Clouds indicate what type of atmospheric processes are occurring (e.g., cumulus clouds indicate surface heating and atmospheric turbulence).
Clouds help redistribute extra heat from the equator toward the poles.

Cirrus clouds are very wispy and high up around 20,000 feet. They are usually white and not associated with rain. Cumulus clouds are the puffy clouds seen around 3,000 feet up on sunny days. Cumulonimbus clouds produce thunderstorms, lightning, tornadoes and bad weather around 1,000 feet up. They can flatten at the top into an anvil shape. Stratus clouds cover the whole sky in a fog-like formation up to 6,000 feet and sometimes produce light drizzle or sprinkles while appearing grey.
The document provides an overview of various weather and climate topics including precipitation, clouds, wind, storms, temperature, and extremes. It defines key terms like precipitation, cloud types, wind speed and direction, hurricanes, tornadoes, and rainbows. Details are given on measuring and classifying different weather phenomena. Climate is distinguished from weather as the average conditions over a larger area and time period.
Tiny particles in the air called hygroscopic nuclei can cause water vapor to condense and form clouds. Clouds are classified by their appearance and altitude into low, middle, and high clouds. Low clouds include stratus, nimbostratus, and stratocumulus and form near the surface. Middle clouds such as altocumulus and altostratus form between 7,000 to 20,000 feet. High clouds like cirrus, cirrostratus, and cirrocumulus are made of ice crystals and form above 20,000 feet. Different cloud types can indicate upcoming weather conditions.
This document discusses different types of clouds based on their properties and formation. It describes 10 main cloud types including cirrus, stratus, cumulus and nimbostratus clouds. These cloud types are grouped into high, middle and low clouds based on their average altitude. High clouds like cirrus are made of ice crystals while middle and low clouds contain mostly water droplets. Clouds form through the heating and rising of air masses which leads to the condensation of water vapor. Different cloud formations signal upcoming weather changes or precipitation.
Cirrus clouds are very high and wispy ice crystals. Cumulus clouds are mid-level fluffy lumps of condensed vapor. Stratus clouds are layers of condensed vapor. Nimbus clouds are clouds that may cause precipitation. Cumulonimbus clouds are very tall and fluffy clouds that can cause heavy rains. When a cold front collides with a warm front, the warm moist air is pushed upwards.
Meteorologists study weather patterns using instruments to gather data from the atmosphere and Earth's surface, which they use to create weather maps and make forecasts. They record surface data on station models using symbols like isotherms and isobars, which connect equal temperatures and pressures and indicate high and low pressure areas. Meteorologists aim to predict future weather conditions but are not always accurate in their forecasts.
Clouds form when warm air rises, expands, and cools, causing water vapor to condense into droplets that make up clouds. Clouds are classified by their shape and height, with some bringing rain or snow while others appear wispy on sunny days.
Weather is affected by factors like air pressure, wind, temperature, and moisture in the air. The sun provides energy that evaporates water into the atmosphere, where clouds form and later fall as rain or snow. It also heats the air, affecting local weather conditions. Air temperature influences daily life, as it is a measure of molecular motion - higher temperatures mean molecules move more rapidly, feeling warm, while lower temperatures mean slower motion and feeling cold. The record lowest worldwide temperature was -89.6°C in Antarctica, while the highest recorded anywhere was 162°F in Libya.
This document contains a series of quotes and images posted by Samy Simpson to promote his "Status Boosters." It includes over 30 short motivational quotes on topics like purpose, freedom, happiness, contribution, imagination, and focus. Many encourage taking risks, following your passion, and opening your mind to new experiences. The quotes are attributed to various famous individuals and an "Unknown" source.
Thunderstorms require three conditions: unstable warm air, moisture, and a lift mechanism. When warm moist air rises, it cools and condenses to form cumulonimbus clouds. Water droplets collide and fall as rain. Thunderstorms can cause flash flooding and hail damage, and lightning occurs when warm and cool air interact within storm clouds or between clouds and the ground, heating the air to over 30,000 degrees Celsius and creating thunder.
Weather refers to the current atmospheric conditions including air pressure, wind, temperature and moisture. The sun provides energy that evaporates water, causing weather phenomena like snow, rain, hurricanes and hail. Atmospheric pressure is measured in hectopascals at sea level using precise instruments, and air moves from high to low pressure areas causing wind. Temperature reflects the energy of atmospheric particle motion, and moisture makes things slightly wet or damp.
Cold fronts move northwest to southeast, bringing colder and drier air behind them. Stationary fronts occur when the boundary between air masses stops advancing. Warm fronts move southwest to northeast, making the air warmer and more humid as the front passes through. Occluded fronts involve three different temperature air masses - cold, cool, and warm air.
The document discusses the water cycle, which is also known as the hydrologic cycle. It has no starting or ending point. The cycle includes evaporation where water in bodies of water is heated by the sun and turns to vapor, condensation where water vapor in the air cools and condenses to form clouds, and precipitation where clouds become too full and release water in forms such as rain, snow, hail, and snowflakes. Tables and examples of different types of precipitation are also included.
Fronts are boundaries between air masses of different densities, moisture, or temperatures that can cause cloudiness, precipitation, and storms. There are four main types of fronts: cold fronts, warm fronts, occluded fronts, and stationary fronts. An occluded front involves three air masses of different temperatures - cold air, cool air, and warm air between the two. It forms when a cold air mass moves toward cool air. A stationary front occurs when neither warm nor cold air advances, resulting in a stalemate with little movement or change in temperature for days with only altocumulus clouds present.

Cloud formation occurs through adiabatic cooling or lifting of air parcels to their dew point temperature. Clouds are classified based on their height and form. High clouds like cirrus are made of ice crystals while low clouds like stratus are uniform layers near the surface. Fog forms through different cooling processes like radiation, advection, or evaporation. Precipitation forms through the Bergeron process using ice crystals or collision-coalescence of water droplets. Rain, snow, sleet, hail, and freezing rain are different types of precipitation. Weather modification techniques like cloud seeding are used to artificially influence precipitation and other weather phenomena.
Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor in the air, measured as a percentage. Dew point is the temperature at which water vapor condenses. Clouds form when the air reaches the dew point temperature. Different types of clouds like cirrus, cumulus and stratus form at different levels and produce different types of precipitation.

Three ways this can happen are convectional rainfall from warm air rising, frontal rainfall from warm and cold air meeting, and relief rainfall from air being forced up over high land. The document also describes different types of clouds like cumulonimbus and stratus clouds and explains rainbows and floods.
Precipitation occurs when water vapor in clouds condenses and falls to the Earth's surface. It can take solid forms like snow or ice, or liquid forms like rain or drizzle. The type depends on the temperature between the cloud and surface. Precipitation is essential for agriculture and plant growth but sometimes heavy precipitation can be destructive. It is measured using various instruments like rain gauges, snow gauges, radars, and satellites which consider factors like amount, intensity, duration, and spatial extent.

Atmospheric stability refers to air that does not rise, which can lead to fog, mist or frost formation. Instability occurs when air rises, forming clouds and rain. Clouds are classified by form, height, and whether convection or fronts caused them. Convectional rainfall happens when warm land heats the air above, causing it to rise and condense. Frontal rainfall occurs at boundaries of warm and cold air masses. Orographic rainfall results when air is forced to rise over mountain barriers, cooling and condensing. Hail forms through a process of freezing and melting within cumulonimbus clouds. Dew and radiation fog form on clear nights through surface cooling and condensation. Advection fog

Different types of clouds are formed at high, middle, and low altitudes. When clouds warm above freezing, rain occurs, while snow falls when clouds dip below -40°C. Sleet forms from supercooled rain and hail from frozen rain droplets.
This document discusses different types of clouds and precipitation. It explains processes like adiabatic temperature changes that cause clouds to form. Specific cloud types are defined, like cirrus, cumulus and stratus clouds. Factors that influence cloud formation are also outlined, such as orographic lifting when air rises over mountains and frontal wedging when warm and cold air collide. The document also covers different forms of precipitation like rain, snow, sleet and hail.
Clouds form when warm air rises and cools, causing water vapor to condense onto particles in the air. There are three main types of clouds classified by their height - high (above 18,000 feet), middle (6,500 to 18,000 feet), and low (up to 6,500 feet). Common cloud types include cirrus, stratus, cumulus, and cumulonimbus clouds which can produce thunderstorms. Fog forms when water vapor condenses and visibility drops to less than 1 kilometer, and there are different types of fog like radiation, advection, and steam fog.
Station models are symbolic illustrations used by meteorologists to plot multiple weather elements in a small space on weather maps. They allow analysis of patterns in air pressure, temperature, wind, cloud cover, and precipitation. Station models use internationally-accepted coding conventions to represent key weather data like temperature, dew point, wind, and precipitation. Weather maps display analysis of meteorological data to show features like fronts, temperature gradients, wind speed, and pressure patterns.
Weather observations can be made by checking a thermometer, looking at cloud cover, and measuring wind speed. Meteorologists study weather data from tools like satellites and radar to create maps and improve forecasting of conditions like tornadoes and snow storms, which helps people prepare for dangerous weather and decide when to evacuate.
Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor in the air. The warmer the air temperature, the more water vapor it can hold before reaching saturation. Cooler air temperatures cause water vapor molecules to slow down and condense together, forming liquid water droplets through the process of condensation. Relative humidity measures the current water vapor content compared to the maximum amount possible at a specific temperature before saturation is reached.
This document discusses different types of precipitation including rain, snow, sleet, and hail. Rain falls as water droplets, snow is frozen water vapor forming snowflakes, sleet forms when rain passes through freezing air, and hail consists of pellets of ice.
The document discusses key weather factors such as air temperature, wind, and humidity. It explains that air temperature is a measure of molecular motion, with higher temperatures indicating more rapid movement. It also describes how wind is caused by differences in air pressure from warm and cool air masses, and can be measured with an anemometer. Finally, it defines relative humidity as the amount of water vapor in the air compared to the maximum possible at a given temperature, with dew point referring to the temperature when air reaches saturation.
Weather refers to the current atmospheric conditions including air pressure, wind, temperature and moisture. The sun provides energy that evaporates water, causing weather phenomena like snow, rain, hurricanes and hail. Atmospheric pressure is measured in hectopascals at sea level using precise instruments, and air moves from high to low pressure areas causing wind. Temperature reflects the energy of atmospheric particle motion, and moisture makes things slightly wet or damp.
Cirrostratus clouds are very high clouds that can indicate either fair weather or an approaching storm. Altostratus clouds form at middle levels and can let sunlight pass through if not too thick. Fog forms at low levels when air reaches its dew point near the ground.
Cirrostratus clouds are very high clouds that can indicate either fair weather or an approaching storm. Altostratus clouds form at middle levels and can let sunlight pass through if not too thick. Fog forms at low levels when air cools to its dew point near the ground.
The document discusses how temperature affects air molecules and wind. When temperatures are lower, air molecules move more slowly, making it feel cooler. Temperature is a property of matter, as heat flows from hot to cool areas. Wind is caused by differences in air density as warmer, less dense air rises and cooler, denser air sinks, creating air movement in specific directions that can be measured with a wind vane or anemometer.
An isotherm is a line on a weather map connecting points of equal temperature, showing temperature patterns. An isobar is an imaginary line connecting places of equal barometric pressure, which can indicate wind speed and pressure in an area. Isotherms and isobars are lines used on weather maps and charts to depict temperature and pressure conditions.
Meteorologists forecast the likelihood of future weather conditions based on observations of the atmosphere and its phenomena related to weather and climate. Today's weather in Pittsburgh will be reported on by meteorologists using their scientific knowledge of the atmosphere to analyze current conditions and predict future weather.
Fronts are boundaries between air masses of different densities, moisture, or temperatures. There are four main types of fronts:
Cold fronts occur when cold air cuts under warm air, forming cumulonimbus clouds that can cause thunderstorms or tornadoes. Warm fronts happen as warmer air advances over colder air. Occluded fronts include three air masses where colder air forces warm air upward. Stationary fronts remain stationary, causing light winds and precipitation.
This document discusses 3 different air masses with varying temperatures that interact. A colder air mass forces warmer air upwards, blocking the warm air from reaching the surface. The 3 air masses mentioned are colder air, cool air, and warmer air that interact in some way.
Thunderstorms are caused by warm, moist air that rises and cools, condensing water vapor into rain droplets or hail. Lightning flashes when different parts of a storm cloud build up opposite electrical charges and current flows between them. Hurricanes are the most powerful storms, forming over warm ocean waters as large, swirling low pressure systems with winds over 119 km/h that can cause high winds, tornadoes, heavy rain, and flooding when making landfall.
Relative humidity is a measure of the amount of water vapor in the air compared to the amount needed for saturation at a specific temperature. Dew point is the temperature at which air becomes saturated and condensation forms. Dew point is a better measure of moisture content because relative humidity can decrease as temperature increases even if dew point remains the same. Fog is likely when the air temperature and dew point temperature are the same, as cooling air to the dew point causes saturation because cooler air has less energy to overcome liquid bonds between water molecules.
Severe weather watches are issued when conditions are favorable for severe storms like thunderstorms, tornadoes, floods, blizzards, and hurricanes. Warnings are issued when severe weather conditions already exist and immediate action should be taken. During blizzards, stay indoors to avoid severe frostbite as blizzards can be blinding with dangerously low temperatures and high winds.
The dew point is the temperature at which air must be cooled for water vapor to condense into liquid water or frost. It can be calculated using a hygrometer and indicates the moisture content of air, with higher dew points corresponding to higher moisture levels. When the dew point drops below freezing, ice will form.
There are three main air masses that interact along fronts: cold, cool, and warm air. A stationary front occurs when the boundary between two air masses stops advancing and remains stationary for several days, often depicted on weather maps with alternating red and blue lines. Cold fronts can advance rapidly and often cause thunderstorms as warm air is lifted over colder air, while warm fronts bring gentle slopes and prolonged wet weather as warm air slides over colder air. Occluded fronts are formed when colder air forces warm air upwards, closing off the warm air from the surface. A stationary front results when neither cold nor warm air advances further.
Wind is the horizontal movement of air relative to the Earth's surface. Wind speed and direction can be measured using instruments like anemometers and wind vanes. Wind energy harnessed through devices like wind turbines to generate electricity.

Key Topics Covered:
Main Topic : USERS, Roles and Privileges
In Oracle databases, users are individuals or applications that interact with the database. Each user is assigned specific roles, which are collections of privileges that define their access levels and capabilities. Privileges are permissions granted to users or roles, allowing actions like creating tables, executing procedures, or querying data. Properly managing users, roles, and privileges is essential for maintaining security and ensuring that users have appropriate access to database resources, thus supporting effective data management and integrity within the Oracle environment.
Sub-Topic :
Definition of User, User Creation Commands, Grant Command, Deleting a user, Privileges, System privileges and object privileges, Grant Object Privileges, Viewing a users, Revoke Object Privileges, Creation of Role, Granting privileges and roles to role, View the roles of a user , Deleting a role
Target Audience:
Final year B.Sc. Computer Science students at Alagappa University seeking a solid foundation in RDBMS principles for academic and practical applications.

1.
2. Clouds are created from warm air forced upward, expands and cools. As the air cools the amount of humidity increases. When the humidity reaches 100 percent the air is saturated. The water soon condenses and makes little water droplets. The droplets fall from the sky called Rain.
3. Clouds are classified by height or shape. They also have different distances from earth’s surface. The shape and height of clouds vary with temperature, pressure, water vapor, and atmosphere
4. Clouds associated with Rain or Snow have the word Nimbus attached to them. Cumulonimbus: When a cloud turns into a Thunderstorm
5. Nimbus: Dark Rain Clouds(Latin) Little Sunlight can pass through them Clouds are 18Km Nimbostratus layered Bring Rain or Snow
6. Precipitation is water falling from clouds Cloud droplets form around small particles such as salt and dust Size depends on -strength of updrafts -rate of evaporation -air temp (rain, snow, sleet, hail)
7. Hail is precipitation in the form of lumps of ice. Hail is formed when nimbus clouds thunder water freezes to form Hail. Most Hail stones are smaller than 2.5cm but can grow as large as softballs.
