Cloud name trail

Produced in partnership with the Royal Meteorological Society, this laminated fold-out chart is a key to the major forms of cumulus, cirrus and stratus clouds seen in Europe.

The accompanying text gives a concise summary of the major processes leading to cloud formation and precipitation: convection, frontal activity and orographic uplift. A table gives further information on the shape and appearance of each of the illustrated cloud forms.

This chart is part of the FSC’s range of fold-out charts, designed to help users identify of a wide range of plants and animals. Each chart is laminated to make it shower-proof and robust for use outdoors. Clear colour illustrations and text by experts in the subject make these valuable resources for all age groups.
