Lenticular Clouds over Plymouth, NH Plymouth State University Meteorology Program Cloud Boutique The Plymouth State Meteorology Program has developed this server to provide explanations of and access to detailed pictures of some basic cloud forms. The cloud images are relatively large (640x480) in order to show detailed structure and features. All of these pictures were taken in the local area around Plymouth, New Hampshire and most from the weather observation deck on the roof of the Boyd Science Center on the Plymouth State campus. Clouds can move and change shape quickly as indicated in this 30 minute time-lapse mpeg video loop . The purpose of this "boutique" is to provide a general cloud reference and is not intended to provide an all-inclusive list. Images will be added to or changed as opportunities permit. Cloud Classification Clouds are generally classified based on characteristics, such as, altitude, appearance, or origin. Altitude distinctions apply to those clouds that fit in various layers of the atmosphere as follows: high clouds - have bases above 18,000 feet

3. The Clouds An analysis of the play by Aristophanes. http://www.theatrehistory.com/ancient/bates025.html

THE CLOUDS An analysis of the play by Aristophanes This document was originally published in The Drama: Its History, Literature and Influence on Civilization, vol. 2 . ed. Alfred Bates. London: Historical Publishing Company, 1906. pp. 26-27. The play of the Clouds Euripides introduced into tragedy; he was the friend of several of the sophists; it was in his character of dialectician that he was courted by ambitious young men; he was the tutor of Alcibiades; his singular manners and his slovenliness had every appearance of affectation, and if we add that he was the only one of the eminent sophists who was an Athenian-born, we shall not wonder that Aristophanes selected him as the representative of the class. The other prominent characters are a father and son, the latter obviously intended for Alcibiades, and also as a general personification of the young profligates of the day, only wanting a little sophistical education to make him throw aside every moral restraint. His silly father supplies the remedy for this defect, and is the first to suffer from the weapon which he has placed in his son's hand. The Clouds was chiefly a general exhibition of the corrupt state of education at Athens, and of its causes; it was a loudly uttered protest on the part of Aristophanes against the useless and pernicious speculations of the sophists, and was not intended, as some would have us believe, to pave the way for the accusation which was many years afterward brought against Socrates as a corrupter of youth, whatever may have been its effect upon the verdict of the dicasts at the trial. It gained only third prize and was unfavorably received at the great

Cloud Types common cloud classifications Clouds are classified into a system that uses Latin words to describe the appearance of clouds as seen by an observer on the ground. The table below summarizes the four principal components of this classification system ( Ahrens Latin Root Translation Example cumulus stratus cirrus nimbus heap layer curl of hair rain fair weather cumulus altostratus cirrus cumulonimbus Further classification identifies clouds by height of cloud base. For example, cloud names containing the prefix "cirr-", as in cirrus clouds, are located at high levels while cloud names with the prefix "alto-", as in altostratus, are found at middle levels. This module introduces several cloud groups. The first three groups are identified based upon their height above the ground. The fourth group consists of vertically developed clouds, while the final group consists of a collection of miscellaneous cloud types. Photograph by: Knupp High-Level Clouds High-level clouds form above 20,000 feet (6,000 meters) and since the temperatures are so cold at such high elevations, these clouds are primarily composed of ice crystals. High-level clouds are typically thin and white in appearance, but can appear in a magnificent array of colors when the sun is low on the horizon. Photograph by: Holle Mid-Level Clouds The bases of mid-level clouds typically appear between 6,500 to 20,000 feet (2,000 to 6,000 meters). Because of their lower altitudes, they are composed primarily of water droplets, however, they can also be composed of ice crystals when temperatures are cold enough.

8. Clouds Over Mount Shasta From the Mount Shasta Companion clouds Over Mount Shasta describes the various cloud types found in the region. http://www.siskiyous.edu/shasta/env/clouds/

Weather and Climate Clouds Over Mount Shasta You will often hear the expression, "Mount Shasta makes its own weather." How can a mountain make its own weather? The main answer is that Mount Shasta's presence causes air to be uplifted. All precipitation comes from clouds. Clouds are formed through the process known as condensation, which is typically caused by cooling. Cooling, in turn, is often caused by the uplifting of air. There are four major processes by which air is uplifted: convective lifting, frontal lifting, convergent lifting, and orographic lifting. Convective summertime thunderstorms produce massive thunderheads on Mount Eddy and Mount Shasta. Wintertime extratropical cyclones produce most of the precipitation formed by frontal lifting in our region. It is the process of orographic lifting that results in Mount Shasta "producing its own weather." The term orographic comes from the Greek word oros , meaning mountain. Orographic lifting is caused when moving air (wind) encounters a mountain and is forced upwards in the process. The layer of air replaced at the surface causes the air above it to be lifted and cooled. If there is enough moisture in the air, the cooling will cause it to condense and form clouds. If further condensation occurs then orographic precipitation can be produced. Mount Shasta is known for its beautiful clouds. The lenticular clouds, often called "flying saucers," are probably the most well-known type of cloud in the region. However, there are many types of clouds that can be seen around Mount Shasta.

CLOUDS In this section, cloud formation is explained and typical clouds types that are associated with midlatitude cyclones are described. The cloud features within a mature cyclonic disturbance are typically organized in a comma form. Specific cloud types can be identified with polar orbiter images and, to a lesser extent, GOES images. Air is comprised mainly of nitrogen and oxygen, but also contains a small amount of water vapor. Clouds form when a parcel of air is cooled until the water vapor that it contains condenses to liquid form. Another way of saying this is that condensation (clouds) occur when an air parcel is saturated with water vapor. The amount of moisture in a parcel of air is expressed in a variety of ways. The standard scientific measure is the partial pressure of water vapor. Partial pressure simply refers to the pressure exerted by only the water vapor part of the air parcel. The standard unit of measure is millibars (mb) and is typically a small fraction of total atmospheric pressure. The water vapor content can also be expressed as a mass mixing ratio, that is, the mass of water vapor per total mass of air. Mixing ratio is usually expressed as grams H per kilograms air.

Stratus: It's Latin for "covering" or "blanket." Stratus clouds look like a flat blanket in the sky. Cirrus: It's Latin for "curl." Cirrus clouds look like curls of white hair. You have only to look up into the sky to try your luck at weather forecasting. Clouds give us a clue about what is going on in our atmosphere and how the weather might change in the hours or even days to come. Each type of cloud forms in a different way, and each brings its own kind of weather. Cool Condensation Clouds are water. As you probably know, we can find water in three forms: liquid, solid and gas. Water as a gas is called water vapor. Clouds form when water vapor turns back into liquid water droplets.

From space, clouds are visible as a white veil surrounding the planet. How Clouds Form : Clouds form when water vapor (water that has evaporated from the surface of the Earth) condenses (turns into liquid water or solid ice) onto microscopic dust particles (or other tiny particles) floating in the air. This condensation (cloud formation) happens when warm and cold air meet, when warm air rises up the side of a mountain and cools as it rises, and when warm air flows over a colder area, like a cool body of water. This occurs because cool air can hold less water vapor than warm air, and excess water condenses into either liquid or ice. For more on the water cycle, click here

Purpose To learn what effect clouds have on the temperature at the Earth's surface. Equipment Thermometers Cloud chart Procedure Use a thermometer in a shady location about a metre above the ground well away from buildings to measure the temperature on clear and cloudy days over several weeks. Along with the temperature measurement, note the time and date. You should take measurements during both day and night. Use a cloud chart (photos of different cloud types) to record the type of cloud present. Estimate the fraction of the sky covered by cloud. An easy way is to observe how many eighths of the sky is cloudy. For example, if half the sky contains clouds, you would describe the cover as 4/8. If clouds occupy only a fraction of the sky, you would write 1/8. Draw up and record your results in a table like the one given below.

Technology Clouds Artist: Clouds Home Library Pop Artists Performed Songs By: Paul Young Formed: 1989, Sydney, Australia Genres: Rock Representative Albums: "Thunderhead" Biography Sydney band the Clouds epitomized the definition of "almost famous." The popularity of their early material, perfectly timed to coincide with the early-'90s boom in alternative rock, was never properly seized on through a combination of mismanagement, poor decisions, and plain bad luck. The core members and vocalists Jodi Phillis (who also played guitar) and Patricia Young (who doubled on bass) originally called themselves Scudda Hey before adding drummer Stuart Eadie and guitarist Robert Phelan and settling on the name Clouds. Their first show was as the opening act for the Go-Betweens ' farewell concert at the Petersham Inn ; a symbolic passing on of energy and perhaps misfortune. While supporting Falling Joys, the Clouds slowly became popular enough to take over as headliners and were signed by indie label Red Eye Records in 1990. Their first EPs, Cloud Factory and Loot, were well-received, as was their debut album, Penny Century. Dave Easton had replaced Robert Phelan on guitar and brought a harsher, rockier sound to the album, which was eventually certified gold. Andrew Byrne replaced drummer Stuart Eadie shortly afterwards, who had clashed with the rest of the band while they were on tour. Their follow-up, the mini-album Octopus, was released a year later, though the label had tried to persuade them to wait until 1993 and record more songs to beef it up into a full-length album release. Penny Century was given an English release in 1993 by
