Air moves from
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Doldrums
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Steady and continuous precipitation
High pressure to low pressure
When air masses are on either side of the front, not towards each other, we describe this as
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Doldrums
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Steady and continuous precipitation
High pressure to low pressure
As you go up in altitude,
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Doldrums
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Steady and continuous precipitation
High pressure to low pressure
Low pressure near the equator where the trade winds meet are known as
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Doldrums
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Steady and continuous precipitation
High pressure to low pressure
What is true of easterlies and westerlies?
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Doldrums
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Steady and continuous precipitation
High pressure to low pressure
A warm front typically has
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Doldrums
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Steady and continuous precipitation
High pressure to low pressure
As you go up in altitude, these TWO layers experience an increase in temperature due to gas absorption
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Doldrums
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Steady and continuous precipitation
High pressure to low pressure
What is true of warm and cold air?
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
A stationary front
Warm air rises and cold air sinks
Doldrums
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
Steady and continuous precipitation
High pressure to low pressure
