Chivundikiro cha mtambo (chomwe chimadziŵika kuti cloudiness, cloudage, kapena cloud amount) chikutanthauza kachigawo kakang'ono ka mlengalenga kophimbidwa ndi mitambo pamene itayang'ana kuchokera ku malo enaake. Okta ndi chiwerengero cha chivundikiro cha mtambo. Chivundikiro cha mtambo chimagwirizanitsa ndi kutentha kwa dzuwa ngati mitambo yaing'ono ndi yopanda dzuwa pamene madera a cloudiest ndi malo ochepetsera dzuwa.

Mtambo wa padziko lapansi umakhala pafupi ndi 0,68 pamene ukufufuzira mitambo yokhala ndi mawindo opambana kuposa 0.1. Mtengo uwu ndi wotsika (0.56) pamene mukuganizira za mitambo yokhala ndi kuya kwakukulu kuposa 2, ndipamwamba powerenga mitambo yosaoneka yomwe imatha.
