What is the main reason normal clouds form less often in the stratosphere?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Lack of water vapour
Ordinary clouds require sufficient water vapour, cooling, and condensation. The troposphere contains most of the atmosphere’s water vapour, whereas the stratosphere is much drier. Consequently, there is less moisture available to condense into ordinary clouds there. Option A is correct. Seawater, soil, and river flow do not directly supply the atmospheric condition responsible for the scarcity of normal stratospheric clouds.
