Answer:

Frontal Lifting

Explanation:

  • This a process where the warm air being lighter is uplifted by the colder air from below and the resultant cold air acts as barrier for the warm air to develop at the ground surface and as being heavy on weight it stays under the warm air, this leads to the formation of convergent uplifting and the two distinct mass air move and the fronts may produce a cyclone when the air moves in a cyclic pathway.

Why does convection occur in the mantle?
natulia [17]
In the earth’s mantle , large amounts of heat are transferred by convection currents, which would cause the heat from the core and the mantle itself causes convection currents in the mantle . The hot rocks eventually will cool and sink back through the mantle which will make the cycle repeat which would be the cycle of rising and sinking .

Which of the following statements correctly describe the winds and air motions associated with surface high pressure systems in
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

E sinking air

D rising air

F convergence of air aloft

Explanation:

Low-pressure systems that cross the Northern Hemisphere usually grow, intensify, and disappear in 3 to 4 days. As they evolve, they travel a lot of kilometers and cause the fall of precipitation, being able to encompass zones as big as the center of the United States. It is more usual for them to happen, and they have more intensity during the winter season.

Usually, high-pressure systems are of two kinds: semi-permanent systems that cover the central regions of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, or the big systems that stand for the big domes of cool air that advance upon southern latitudes after the low-pressure systems have passed. They have the characteristics listed above.
