Clouds vs. The Apology In Aristophanes’ Clouds and in Plato’s Apology we see extensive fictional representations of the historical figure‚ Socrates‚ who left us no literary works under his own name. When comparing these two representations‚ readers often assume‚ as a result of the nature of the comedic genre‚ that Aristophanes’ portrayal of Socrates is exaggerated and fallacious. On the other hand‚ Plato’s account is often taken more seriously as a result of the philosophical genre and the respected

The Classification of Clouds The scientific study of clouds began in 1803 when Luke Howard‚ a British pharmacist and amateur meteorologist‚ introduced the first system for classifying clouds. Although many other procedures for cloud classification have been devised over the years‚ Howard’s system is so simple and effective that it is still in use today. It is based on the shape‚ distribution‚ and altitude of clouds. He identified ten different categories‚ but they are all variations of three

Title FLAT BOTTOM CLOUDS (PART 1) Introduction You have probably heard people say hot air rises‚ after all isnt that why hot air balloons rise Well‚ if this were the case shouldnt we be sun bathing instead of skiing on the mountaintops What happened to all that hot air There must be more to this story. In this laboratory you will be investigating how pressure affects the temperature of air and how this relates to the formation of clouds in the troposphere. You will form a cloud in a bottle‚ find

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‚ 1994). Latin Root | | Translation | | Example | cumulus stratus cirrus nimbus | | heap layer curl of hair rain | | fair weather cumulus altostratus cirrus cumulonimbus | Further classification identifies clouds

How do Clouds Form? While there are a wide variety of cloud shapes and sizes‚ they are all made of the same thing: condensed water or ice. Clouds form when rising air‚ through expansion‚ cools to the point where some of the water vapor molecules "clump together" faster than they are torn apart by their thermal energy. Some of that (invisible) water vapor condenses to form (visible) cloud droplets or ice crystals. Some clouds are called “convective" because it is produced from warm air pockets
