an advancing cold front
When warm air pushes into cold air the result is a warm front.
No. A cold front is a boundary between two large-scale air masses where a cold air mass pushes into and displaces a warmer air mass. Thunderstorms often form along cold fronts, and these storms occasionally produce tornadoes.
Yes, because glacial ice is still moving inside the glacier even if the glacier's front is not advancing.
A cold front normally moves at twice the speed of a warm front. An occluded front forms when a cold front catches up with a warm front. Occluded fronts are of two types:1. Cold occlusion : If the airmass of the advancing cold front is colder than the cool airmass of the warm front, the advancing cold front undercuts and lifts both the warm and cool airmass of the warm front. The weather is initially warm front type but during the passage of front, showery weather of cold front occurs. This occlusion is common in summer.2. Warm occlusion : When the airmass behind the advancing cold front is less colder (cool) than the cold airmass of the warm front ahead, the advancing cold front overrides the warm front ahead. The weather in such a case is similar to that of warm front. This type of occlusion occurs in winters and is less common.Considering occlusion occurs near the center of a mid-latitude cyclone that has matured, the weather would be very unsettled with rain/snow likely and maybe thunderstorms as well, potentially over a prolonged period.Glad I could help! :)
Warm air is air that has a relatively high temperature. A cold front is a weather phenomenon that occurs when an cooler air mass pushes into a warmer one and displaces it.

This is typically a cold front. As the cold air mass moves under the warm air mass, it pushes the warm air upwards, where it condensates and creates precipitation.
A warm front occurs when cooler air retreats and warmer air advances. A cold front occurs when cooler air advances, pushing warmer air away. An occluded front occurs when a cold front catches up with a warm front, sending the warmer air aloft. A stationary front occurs when warm and cold air meet, but neither air mass advances.
If the cold air is advancing, that makes it a cold front.

Fronts being the boundaries between two air masses - one warmer than the other - they are named for whichever air mass is advancing on the other. Cold air pushes in behind a cold front, and likewise a warm front has colder air retreating. If the boundary has stalled and neither air mass is pushing back the other, you have a stationary front.
