- 1. Layer of the atmosphere in which clouds form
- 3. Measures the actual amount of moisture in the air (8,8)
- 4. This is a person who studies the weather
- 5. A measure of the moisture level in the air; compares the actual amount of water vapour to the possible amount of water vapour (8,8)
- 7. This gas is found predominately in the stratosphere
- 8. Another name for rain, hail and snow.
- 9. When humidity gets to 100% water vapour goes through this process, producing clouds.
- 11. This device is used to measure the temperature of the air
- 12. Air masses like this are associated with wet, cloudy weather (3,8)
- 13. Air masses like this are associated with dry, fine weather (4,8)
Down
- 1. This factor of the weather has a direct effect on humidity
- 2. Air pressure is measured with this device
- 6. Layer of the atmosphere in which meteors get burnt up
- 10. The most extreme temperatures are found in this layer of the atmosphere
