Where do weather fronts occur?
in between or around or near air masss or where they meet.
How is a front formed?
A weather front typically forms when both warm and cool air meet. Both the difference in air temperature, as well as the density of the air, can cause a front. Warm fronts are more slow moving than cold fronts and usually produce precipitation. Fronts are depicted on weather maps with arrows showing where the front has come from and what direction the front is moving.
What is the narrow region separating two air masses of different densities?
Fronts
What is a boundary of two air masses of different temperature?
The boundary between two air masses is known as a Front. There are four types of fronts, warm fronts, cold fronts, stationary fronts, and occluded fronts. See the link for characteristics of each.
What two masses do air fronts form along?
continental arctic and maritime tropical
What are two types of air masses that occur and how ar air masses related to fronts?
Two types of air masses are cold and warm air masses. When they meet each other, a front forms.
What happens when air masses meet fronts?
when two air masses meets at fronts,cyclonic rain occurs.
Are cold air masses lighter the warm air masses or the same?
cold fronts are heavier than warm fronts
Air masses are known as?
fronts
How does unequal heating of earth affect the movement of air masses?
Unequal heating cause air masses to form fronts. Fronts are masses that contain air that is all the same temperature and at the same altitude.
Air masses bend at boundaries to form?
Fronts
Fronts form because?
Fronts form in the weather because of convection. There is a boundary created from two air masses of different masses.
Where do weather fronts occur?
in between or around or near air masss or where they meet.
What are common fronts in North America?
Colliding air masses in North America can form 4 types of fronts: cold fronts, warm fronts, stationary fronts, and occluded fronts.
How are changes in weather are caused by the interaction of air masses?
Fronts do not often occur near the Equator because air masses there do not have big teperature
How changes in weathers are caused the interaction of air masses?
Fronts do not often occur near the Equator because air masses there do not have big teperature
What does air mass have to do with fronts?
A front is an edge between two or more different air masses.
