Which cloud formation is abbreviated to Sc?
Cumulus cloud lead to the formation of cirrus clouds. The researchers speculated that this might even produce a positive feedback, where the increasing upper atmospheric moisture further warms the earth, resulting in an increasing number of "cumulus congestus" clouds carrying more moisture into the upper atmosphere. Cumulus clouds are a genus of free-convective low-level cloud along with the related limited-convective cloud stratocumulus. These clouds form from ground level to at all latitudes. Stratus clouds are also low-level. In the middle level are the alto- clouds, which consist of the limiited-convective stratocumuliform cloud altocumulus and the stratiform cloud altostratus. Mid-level clouds form from
Cloud formation and climate change and global warming. Some nephologists believe that an increase in global temperature could decrease the thickness and brightness (ability to reflect light energy), which would further increase global temperature. Recently research has been going on at CERN's CLOUD facility to study the effects of the solar cycle and cosmic rays on cloud formation. Cloud formation and climate change Nephology (; from the Greek word "nephos" for 'cloud') is the study of clouds and cloud formation. British meteorologist Luke Howard was a major researcher within this field, establishing a cloud classification system. While this branch of meteorology still exists today, the
