2. What falls out of the atmosphere
3. a cloud of a class characterized by thin white filaments or narrow bands and a composition of ice crystals
6. Global winds are winds that blow from a specific direction and typically cover long distances.
7. A pseudo force used mathematically to describe motion, as of aircraft or cloud formations, relative to a noninertial, uniformly rotating frame of reference such as the earth.
9. cloud of a class characterized by a gray, horizontal layer with a uniform base
10. The angular distance north or south of the earth's equator, measured in degrees along a meridian, as on a map or globe.
11. a cloud of a class characterized by dense individual elements in the form of puffs, mounds, or towers, with flat bases and tops that often resemble cauliflower
12. an atmospheric heating phenomenon, caused by short-wave solar radiation being readily transmitted inward through the earth's atmosphere
15. an instrument for measuring temperature
16. strong, generally westerly winds concentrated in a relatively narrow and shallow stream in the upper troposphere of the earth.

1. the act or process of evaporating
4. hydrologic cycle
5. a wave produced by the acceleration of an electric charge and propagated by the periodic variation of intensities of, usually, perpendicular electric and magnetic fields.
8. a coastal breeze blowing at night from land to sea, caused by the difference in the rate of cooling of their respective surfaces.
13. humid condition; moistness; dampness
14. one of a number of winds that are influenced predominantly by the topographic features of a relatively small region.
