A rapidly moving cold air mass meets a slowly moving warm air mass and forms a front. What will most likely occur at this front?
isotherms
a cold front has passed
by causing cold air to sink and warm air to rise
72
calm weather, as air sinks
It is warmer than the mesosphere because the stratosphere contains the ozone layer.
cold air will slide under the warm air. warm air will rise and cool. clouds will form
it causes winds to rotate to the right in the Northern Hemisphere
