If you’ve ever seen a jet fly across the sky, you may have noticed that it produces a thin white cloud behind it. These clouds are trails of condensation and are referred to as contrails. Contrails are composed primarily of water in the form of ice crystals and may remain visible for short periods of time if the humidity is low.... Occasionally, ADEQ [Arizona Department of Environmental Quality] is contacted by members of the public who wonder if these contrails might contain harmful chemicals.

The color shading ranges from white to light gray, with bases that can be as low as 1, 000 m above the ground, and have a diameter of about a kilometer or so. The cloud tops, likewise, are usually not very high and designate the limit of the rising air. Called cumulus humilis, these clouds show only slight vertical growth. However, given suitable conditions, what may initially begin as harmless Fair Weather Cumulus, can later develop into towering cumulus clouds that have an appearance resembling that of a cauliflower, with strong updrafts and possibly precipitation.  3, record 19, English, - cumulus%20humilis

... when cumulus clouds have only slight vertical ascent and are usually confined to the lowest 2 kilometers of the atmosphere they are referred to as cumulus humilis; when cumulus clouds reach moderate vertical extent (generally between 2 to 6 kilometers above the ground) an exhibit small protuberances they are termed cumulus mediocris; finally, when cumulus clouds extend high up into the atmosphere (generally 6 kilometers or more above the ground) and their bulging parts resemble cauliflower they are called cumulus congestus.  5, record 19, English, - cumulus%20humilis

Cumulus humilis. Ces nuages poussent tous à la même hauteur et donnent l'impression d'un champ de choux-fleurs dans le ciel. Le cumulus humilis est le plus petit des cumulus (en latin, humilis signifie humble). Il se forme lorsque la convection est faible. Sa faible hauteur et sa base aplatie sont des signes de beau temps. La hauteur de la base correspond au niveau de condensation. C'est-à-dire que l'air est relativement sec en-deçà de cette hauteur et est saturé au-delà. Le faible développement vertical indique que l'atmosphère est stable près du sommet du nuage, empêchant sa croissance. Les humilis sont plus larges que hauts.  4, record 19, French, - cumulus%20humilis

Oxidasic casse. Caused by an enzyme(polyphenolozidase), it makes wine cloud upon exposure to air and change colour-red wines turning brown and white yellow, and, after a time, forming a deposit. It is often present in wines made from slightly overripe or mouldy grapes.  2, record 21, English, - oxidasic%20casse

La casse oxydasique se rencontre sur les moûts ou sur les vins nouveaux, sur lesquels on voit apparaître, au contact plus ou moins prolongé avec l'air, un brunissement qui part de la surface et s'étend intensément et rapidement à tout le liquide. [...] La cause de l'altération est une combinaison rapide, par suite de l'action d'une enzyme, la polyphénoloxydase, de l'oxygène de l'air avec divers composés, en particulier les composés phénoliques [...]  3, record 21, French, - casse%20oxydasique
