There are three main types of lenticular clouds: altocumulus standing lenticular (ACSL), stratocumulus standing lenticular (SCSL), and cirrocumulus standing lenticular (CCSL), varying in altitude above the ground.
Sometimes known as type 2, a thin usually cirriform or lenticular (stratocumuliform) looking cloud based from about 18 to 30 kilometres (59,000–98,000 ft) and seen most often between sunset and sunrise. [8] Consists of ice crystals only.
29 Μαΐ 2024 · Lenticular clouds, or Altocumulus lenticularis, are stationary cloud formations known for their lens-like shape and smooth appearance. These clouds are often mistaken for unidentified flying objects (UFOs) due to their distinct and dramatic visual structures.
Other clouds are grouped not by their height, but by their unique characteristics, such as those that form over mountains (lenticular clouds) or beneath existing clouds (mammatus clouds). There are many different types of clouds, each with a unique shape and location in the sky.
Figure 1: Lenticular cloud diagram. The above simplified diagram represents stable atmospheric flow from left to right. As the atmosphere is forced up and over a barrier, such as a mountain, lenticular clouds may form at different elevations downwind of the barrier.
Lenticularis. (Section 2.2.2.2.8) Clouds having the shape of lenses or almonds, often very elongated and usually with well-defined outlines; they occasionally show irisations. Such clouds appear most often in cloud formations of orographic origin, but may also occur in regions without marked orography.
