Clouds
What is the liquid that formed from the clouds that has become too heavy to stay in the air
Precipitation
What is the variety of ways water moves across the land
Run-off
What is a measure of the amount of water vapor into the air
Humidity
Airs ability to hold water vapor depends on its
Temperature
Blank air can hold more water vapor then blank air
Warm cold
How do clouds form
Clouds form when water vapor in the air condenses to form liquid water or ice crystals
Scientist classify clouds based on their what
Shape and altitude
