Which most likely occurs when a fast-moving cold air mass moves into a region of warmer, moist air?
nitrogen
They move from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.
Climate is based on observations made for a region over several years, whereas weather is based on day-to-day observations.
the interaction between ocean water temperatures and warm air masses
troposphere
an intrusion of salt water into aquifers
It causes heavy precipitation for a short period of time.
aerosols
