Forms, Heights and Names of Clouds
Cloud photographs are stacked beside labels for cirrus, cirro-stratus, cumulus and other forms. A height scale on the opposite side compares them with landmarks and mountains including the Himalayas, Andes and Mont Blanc. The source credits Colonel H. M. Saunders’s photographs, combining classification, visual examples and relative altitude in one meteorological plate.
