| Summary | "Cloud Studies" by Arthur William Clayden is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book explores various types of clouds, aiming to enhance understanding and communication about cloud structures within the field of meteorology. Clayden seeks to bridge the gap between meticulous scientific observation and artistic appreciation of the beauty found in differing cloud formations. The opening of the book introduces readers to the fundamental aspects of cloud study, emphasizing the importance of careful observation and classification. Clayden discusses the historical context of cloud observation, highlighting a lack of precise terminology and the significant contributions of figures like Luke Howard, who established a foundational naming system. He notes the contemporary necessity for an expanded vocabulary to identify the myriad forms of clouds accurately and presents his intent to explore both common and rare cloud types within the scientific framework established by previous scholars, foreshadowing a detailed examination of cloud varieties in subsequent chapters.
