Question

discuss the nature of fronts and how it applies to the earths weather. Show me facts such as cold front, warm front, stationary front, occluded front, Slope, size, speed and types of clouds

Answer 1

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

• A weather front is a layer separating two types of air masses of different densities. Depending on the type of front the air mass is characterized by humidity and temperature.

• As cold and occluded fronts generally form in the west to east direction, while warm fronts move polewards due to the densities of the air masses. When two fronts of opposing nature collide it leads to the formation of cloudiness or precipitation and there place of collision is marked by the formation of a shearling.

• Cold fronts are marked by a blue line and bring heavy thunder and rain, thus associated with low-pressure areas. A cold front pushes the warm front upwards making a cyclic pattern.

• Warm is light and is found in areas of high pressure and occluded fronts are formed when this air, is pushed upwards forming a slope. And the stationary front is a boundary that separates the two air masses. Expressed by the spacing of isotherms.

• Various types of clouds like Straus and stratus cumulus and nimbostratus.
