Are Surface cyclones accompanied by divergence aloft?
Depends, convergence would be a cyclone and divergence and anti cyclone The link below has more information.
Does divergence help to maintain surface lows?
yes
Can thunderstorms occur in areas of surface convergence?
Yes. Convergence is one of the things forecasters look for in trying to predict thunderstorms.
Is wind stronger at the surface or as it moves away from the surface?
away
Why upper-level divergence leads to surface cyclogenesis?
Divergence at mid- and upper levels facilitates the evacuation of air from the top of the developing low pressure system, which is what is required for air to continue to rise and therefore lower the pressure further.

What makes the equatorial divergence regions biologically productive?
Biologically a very productive region of the ocean. At the equator, there is divergence of surface water because the net Ekman transpor.
What is convergence in tornadoes?
I meteorology, the scientific study of weather, convergence is wheere wind comes together in an are from the surroundings. When this happens at ground level, the air is forced to rise. This is related to tornadoes in two ways. Convergence on the large and medium-sized scales of weather can lead to the formation of thunderstorms. Under the right conditions, these thunderstorms may spawn tornadoes. Second, air converges inside a tornado, as the intense low pressure draws it inward.
An aircraft will not launch when the surface DA exceeds how many feet?
10,000
When air at the surface diverges airflow above must?
There has to be convergence aloft.

away

Where there is a zone of air divergence at Earth's surface. What would you expect to see directly above the zone and why?
Clear weather because there are no fronts presently over the zone
What is the net inward movement of air in a surface low pressure system that causes the air mass to shrink?
The effect is called horizontal convergence.
What does baby powder do to water's surface tension?
Makes it stronger
