condensation nucleus | Clouds form when water vapor cools and condenses on condensation nuclei.
🗑

adiabatic cooling | Water vapor can cool and condense by adiabatic cooling, by the mixing of two bodies of moist air that have different temperatures
🗑

advective cooling | by the lifting of air, and by advective cooling
🗑

||||
stratus cloud | gray cloud that has a flat, uniform base and that commonly forms at very low altitudes
