Cyclonic rainfall and its features​
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

This occurs due to the convergence of different air masses with different temperatures, density, and humidity. The turbulent conditions are produced, and cyclonic rain occurs along the fronts of the cyclone. The layer separating them is known as a front. The front has two parts – the warm front and the cold front.

At the warm front, the lighter warm air that is less dense usually forced to rise over denser cold air and thereby leading to cyclonic rain. A variety of clouds get formed, and they generally lead to moderate to heavy rainfall.

Causes for Occurrence of Frontal Rainfall

A tropical warm air mass comes in contact with a cold air mass of polar region. The less-dense, lighter warm air is then forced to rise over the denser, cold air.

It causes warm air to become cold. As the warm air is forced to rise further, it condenses to form the stratus cloud.

After becoming saturated, the stratus cloud begins to precipitate.

Frontal or cyclonic rain falls gradually for a few hours which can also extend up to a few days.

It is prevalent in Britain and Ireland, which is associated with the movement of depressions over the country. In north-west Europe, warm oceanic air and cold continental air converge to produce heavy rainfall in adjacent areas.

Why do mountains form around big bend
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

The bends causes the overlaying of a crustal layer upon other layer. It results the formation of mountain on the overlying layer.

Explanation:

The big bends on the earth crust are the big faults. This fault formed due to the overlaying of a layer with other layers. The overlying crustal layer has deposits of lands on it and forms big mountains. This is a continuous and slow process. Sometimes the tectonic plate movement results in a sudden rise of some lands, and this forms new tabletop land and also dome mountains. The mountains are always formed due to the fault of the crust which are the bends on the earth.  The mountains also formed due to a volcanic eruption. Such mountains are known as volcanic or igneous mountains. This is the very reason the mountains form around big bends
