Condensation nuclei - Tiny particles invisible to the human eye, such as dust, dirt, an pollutants, provide surfaces on which water molecules can condense and gather into water droplets ...
Condensation Nuclei: Liquid or solid particles, such as those in smoke or dust, that provide a surface upon which water vapour can condense into cloud droplets or form ice crystals.
Condensation nuclei Small particles in the atmosphere that serve as the core of tiny condensing cloud droplets. These may be dust, salt, or other material.
Condensation nuclei Tiny particles upon whose surfaces condensation of water vapor begins in the atmosphere.
CONDENSATION NUCLEI A particle upon which condensation of water vapor occurs. It may be either in a solid or liquid state.
cloud condensation nuclei counter"(Abbreviated CCN counter.) Any of several devices that measure the number concentration of atmospheric particles upon which water vapor condenses at low values of supersaturation that are equivalent to those that ...
Cloud Condensation Nuclei- small particles in the air on which water vapor condenses and forms cloud droplets.
Cloudy- the state of the sky when 7/10ths or more of the sky is covered by clouds.
Cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) Tiny sold and liquid particles on which water vapor condenses.
Cloud street Clouds aligned in rows due to strong vertical shear in horizontal wind speed or direction. ...
Condensation Nuclei- Small particles in the air around which water vapor condenses.
Conduction- The transfer of heat by molecular action within a substance or when two substances are in direct contact.
CCN - Cloud Condensation Nuclei. Particles (or aerosols) on which water condenses to form cloud drops.
See blowing spray as a factor in visibility at sea and as a possible condensation nuclei. SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE (SST) The temperature of the water's surface.
Many haze formations are caused by the presence of an abundance of condensation nuclei which may grow in size, due to a variety of causes, and become mist, fog, or cloud. Hazemeter Name sometimes given to a transmissometer.
Visibility reduction in fog depends on concentration of cloud condensation nuclei and the resulting distribution of droplet sizes.
Condensation Nuclei: Microscopic particles of dust, dirt, CO2, Salt, Etc Smoke which water vapor needs for condensation.
Contrails:Condensation fromed by the exhaust of an aircraft.
CP: Designated letters for a Continental Polar Air Mass: ...
cloud formation: cloud-condensation nuclei, cloud droplets
For condensation to occur at the dew point water vapor needs a surface to condense on.
Of course, in actual practice in the Earth's atmosphere, the ability of water to condense into droplets is generally affected by the presence of hygroscopic dust particles (Cloud Condensation nuclei).
Any substance that has an affinity for water, thereby enhancing condensation of water vapor. Cloud condensation nuclei are typically hygroscopic, ...
Hygroscopic Nuclei - Condensation nuclei having a high affinity for water, such as salt particles.
of a slow-moving anticyclone, and notice lots of thin, white lines criss-crossing the region, which don't appear on the corresponding InfraRed image, these are ships' trails, caused by exhaust particles from the vessel acting as condensation nuclei, ...
