What Does CCL Stand For?
CCL stands for Convective Condensation Level
CCL, or Convective Condensation Level, refers to the altitude at which rising air cools sufficiently for water vapor to condense into liquid droplets, forming clouds. It is a critical parameter in meteorology, as it helps to determine the height of cloud bases and plays a significant role in understanding atmospheric stability and convection processes. The CCL is influenced by factors such as temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, making it essential for weather forecasting and climate studies.
