Zininzi iindidi zamafu esibhakabhakeni, kodwa namhlanje siza kuthetha ngento eqhelekileyo esibhakabhakeni: ilifu le-cirrus.
Ngaba uyafuna ukwazi ukuba kutheni bevela kwaye ngubani umqondiso wexesha abawubonisayo?
Inkangeleko yelifu le-cirrus
I-cirrus okanye i-cirrus luhlobo lwamafu oluqukethe iikristali zomkhenkce, Kuba zenziwa kubude obumalunga ne-8.000 yeemitha. Lubonakala ngokuba nemibhinqo ebhityileyo, ebhityileyo kwaye emile okwehashe lomnyhadala ekupheleni. Ngamanye amaxesha ilifu le-cirrus longezwa kwenye kwaye kubonakala ngathi lide kangangokuba akunakwenzeka ukwahlula ukuba yeyiphi enye enye. Xa oku kusenzeka, kuthiwa cirrostratus.
Igama le-cirrus livela kwisiLatin i-cirrus y kuthetha curl. Yiyo loo nto ibhekisa kwimilo yelifu.
Amafu e-Cirrus abonisa umohluko ekuhambeni komoya phakathi komphezulu kunye nomzantsi welifu. Kuba ulwalathiso lomoya lungatshintsha, imida ye-cirrus inokuhamba ngokukhawuleza ngaphezulu komaleko womoya kwaye igqobhozele kwinqanaba elingaphantsi nelikhawulezayo lomoya.
Zihlala zivela kwiindawo eziphakamileyo phakathi kwe-8 ne-12 km. Amakristali e-ice awayo xa ilifu lichithakala lumphunga ngaphambi kokuba liwele emhlabeni.
Ukuba kukho i-cirrus esibhakabhakeni kunokubonisa ukuba kukho inkqubo ethe ngqo okanye ukuphazamiseka kwamanqanaba aphezulu. Banokubonisa ukuba isiqhwithi siyeza. Ngokwesiqhelo, izaleko ezinkulu zamafu e-cirrus zezona zihamba nokuhamba komoya okuphezulu.
ICirrus kunye notshintsho lwemozulu
Umsebenzi weCirrus ngokubamba ubushushu obukhutshwe nguMhlaba ubuye emajukujukwini ngexesha lesiphumo sokushisa, kodwa kuyanceda ukubonisa ukukhanya kwelanga kufikelele kumphezulu. Ayaziwa ukuba iyichaphazela njani ngokucacileyo ibhalansi yamandla oMhlaba, kodwa bayaziwa ukuba banegalelo kwi-albedo yasemhlabeni.
Lo mbandela kubalulekile ukuba uthathele ingqalelo xa uqikelela utshintsho lwemozulu.
Sele uyazi enye into ngamafu esibhakabhakeni.
