Which of the following methods provides the most accurate measurements of cloud base altitude?
A)weather radar
B)geosynchronous satellite
C)visual observation
D)ceilometer

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The ceilometer is a specialized instrument designed to accurately measure the height of the cloud base. While weather radar and geosynchronous satellite can provide valuable information about cloud patterns and movements, they are not typically used for precise altitude measurements of individual cloud bases. Visual observation can also be used, but it is more subjective and prone to error than the ceilometer. Therefore, D (ceilometer) is the most accurate method.
