This is the most abundant gas in the troposphere
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Pressure decreases and density decreases
An occluded front
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Steady and continuous precipitation
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Nitrogen
What is true of warm and cold air?
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Pressure decreases and density decreases
An occluded front
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Steady and continuous precipitation
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Nitrogen
Warm air mass gets caught between two colder air masses and is forced upward is known as
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Pressure decreases and density decreases
An occluded front
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Steady and continuous precipitation
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Nitrogen
As you go up in altitude,
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Pressure decreases and density decreases
An occluded front
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Steady and continuous precipitation
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Nitrogen
As you go up in altitude, these TWO layers experience an increase in temperature due to gas absorption
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Pressure decreases and density decreases
An occluded front
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Steady and continuous precipitation
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Nitrogen
When air masses are on either side of the front, not towards each other, we describe this as
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Pressure decreases and density decreases
An occluded front
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Steady and continuous precipitation
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Nitrogen
What is true of easterlies and westerlies?
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Pressure decreases and density decreases
An occluded front
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Steady and continuous precipitation
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Nitrogen
A warm front typically has
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Pressure decreases and density decreases
