A cloud is a group of water droplets in the atmosphere.. The water vapor condenses during the water cycle to form clouds.. Cirrus Clouds. They are the highest clouds.. They look thin, wispy, or feathery.. Precipitation. We’ve studied the water cycle, and last week we focused on the “Condensation”. part. Now, we are going to discuss the precipitation part of the water cycle.. Let’s watch this video on Precipitation!. The SOCRATES Planning . Team. : . Greg . McFarquhar. (. mcfarq@atmos.uiuc.edu. ),.

Earth’s water is mostly found in the oceans, but it is also found in lakes, rivers, ice sheets, in plants, and underground.. It can be present as a solid (like snow), liquid (rain), or gas (water vapor). . . Photograph: Tony Clarke, VOCALS . REx. flight RF07. Robert Wood. University of Washington. with Rhea George, Chris .

Hail, sleet, snow, rain.. Rain. As warm air rises into the atmosphere it cools. The air creates water vapor which condenses and forms into clouds. Once the clouds are big enough and are holding enough water it begins to rain.. Deliberate Cloud Seeding. Cloud Seeding. Deliberate cloud seeding, with the goal of increasing precipitation by the injection of specific types of particles into clouds, has been pursued for over 60 years. . Jassem. al .

Water vapor, droplets of water suspended in the air, builds up in the Earth's atmosphere. . Water vapor in the atmosphere is visible as clouds and fog. . Water vapor collects with other materials, such as dust, in clouds. Precipitation condenses, or forms, around these tiny pieces of material, called cloud condensation nuclei (CCN).. Artificial rain making.. Process of Precipitation:. Precipitation is caused by condensation of water . vapours. of the air mass. . The ascending air mass with sufficient amount of water . vapours. becomes saturated due to adiabatic cooling. Condensation of water . . Can you identify . cloud types in landscape paintings? . Directions. : Take a look at each piece of art and try to identify the clouds. The following slide has the answer. Good luck!. Title. : Route de Louveciennes. . crystals.. Is is simply a matter of the water droplets combining to form raindrops?. Answer: No, Cloud droplets are TINY! It would take thousands of them happening to combine to form a single raindrop..
