Cloud Development

Clouds are made of water droplet or ice crystals or both How do water droplets/ice crystal form and grow? How do various types of clouds form? How can clouds lead to precipitation?

Step 1: Condensation And Freezing Nuclei

Salt particles attract water….they produce hygroscopic nuclei

Step 2; Rising Motion Producing Cooling and Saturation
