Microsoft Rewards Bing Homepage Quiz: A ‘cloud forest’ is so named because the forest is high enough above sea-level to be covered by consistent cloud cover. What is NOT a form of cloud cover?

A Stratocumuliform
B Hydroform
C Cirriform

The five main types of cloud formations used for satellite analysis are stratiform, cirriform, stratocumuliform, cumuliform, and cumulonimbiform.
Clouds in cloud forests do not qualify as any of the five types. They are known as silvagenitus clouds, which is Latin for ‘created from forest.’ They’re formed from water that evaporates from the soil and plants of the forest.

The correct answer is Hydroform.
