At level with stratus nebulosus translucidus (V-90) and opacus (V-91) clouds Stratus fractus (V-89) cloud. Abbreviation: St [9] Clouds of the genus stratus form in low horizontal layers having a ragged or uniform base. Ragged stratus often forms in precipitation while more uniform stratus forms in maritime or other moist stable air mass conditions.
Stratus clouds may also form from formation mechanisms that are not typical for the cloud type, for example, Stratus homogenitus, which are stratus formed by human activity, Stratus cataractagenitus, which are formed from the spray of waterfalls, and Stratus silvagenitus, which are formed by evaporation or evapotranspiration occurring in a forest.
Stratus silvagenitus is a type of stratus cloud. The word silvagenitus is a scientific Latin coinage meaning "created from forest". [ 1 ] This cloud type forms over forested areas which are experiencing high relative humidity levels, for example, after precipitation has passed, through evaporation and/or evapotranspiration .
Stratus nebulosus is a species of low-level stratus cloud. It is one of only two species that is associated with stratus clouds, other being fractus. Translated from Latin meaning nebulous, their cloud abbreviations can be respectively written as ‘St neb’. For a cloud to be classified as nebulosus, there has to be zero sign of detail in the ...
Translucidus is a cloud variety. It appears in altocumulus, altostratus, stratus, and stratocumulus clouds. The cloud variety is very recognizable, with its defining feature being that it is translucent, and that it gives away the location of the Sun and Moon. Sometimes, it lets stars in the night sky be visible. [1]
However, the cloud sheet is not completely uniform, so that separate cloud bases still can be seen. This is the main precipitating type, however any rain is usually light. If the cloud layer becomes grayer to the point when individual clouds cannot be distinguished, stratocumulus turn into stratus clouds.
Cumulus clouds are clouds that have flat bases and are often described as puffy, cotton-like, or fluffy in appearance. Their name derives from the Latin cumulus, meaning "heap" or "pile". [1] Cumulus clouds are low-level clouds, generally less than 2,000 m (6,600 ft) in altitude unless they are the more vertical cumulus congestus form. Cumulus ...
