Answer:

*Relief rainfall

*Convection rainfall

*Frontal rainfall

Explanation:

Relief rainfall: Relief or orographic rain is formed when air is forced to cool when it rises over relief features in the landscape such as hills or mountains. As it rises it cools, condenses, and forms rain. The highest rainfall totals of over 1,600 mm per year occur in the mountain areas along the west coast.

Convection rainfall: occurs when the energy of the sun heats the surface of the Earth, causing water to evaporate to form water vapour. When the land heats up, it warms the air above it. This causes the air to expand and rise. As the air rises it cools and condenses.

Frontal rainfall: is caused by cyclonic activity and it occurs along the fronts of the cyclone. It is formed when two masses of air of different temperature, humidity and density meets. For example, meeting of - moisture-laden warm tropical wind with a polar air mass. A layer separating them is called the front .

What are the strengths and limitations of the Doppler and transit methods? What kinds of planets are easiest to detect with each

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Yes, there are certain planet that are not detected even if they are large.

Explanation:

The Doppler method is the radial-velocity method, and also an indirect method finding the extra solar planets and the brown dwarfs. While the transit method is a phenomenon only the celestial bodies are directly between a large body and an observer body.

However, the transit method of the transiting planet is low as it depends on the alignment of the three objects that are in a near perfect straight line patterns. And that of the Doppler method that it can only measure movements along that line of sight, and this depends on the estimates of inclination of the planet's orbit to determine its mass.
