What is an airmass source region?
An airmass source region is an extensive area of the earth's surface over which bodies of air remain for a sufficient time to acquire characteristic temperature and moisture properties imparted by that surface.
What type of weather in a occluded front?
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! :)
Is fog caused when cool moist air moves in from over the water and goes over cooler land?
Yes, fog can be caused when cool, moist air from over the water moves over cooler land. As the warm, moist air cools down upon contact with the colder surface, it condenses into tiny water droplets, forming fog. This process is often observed in coastal areas where sea breezes bring humid air inland.
Where is the maritime polar air mass form?
The maritime polar air mass forms over the cold waters of the polar regions. It acquires its characteristics, including cool and humid air, as it moves over the oceans.
What happens to a hurricane when it comes into contact with warm water?
A hurriccane can't form unless it is laready over warm water. If it moves over warmer water, the hurricane is likely to gains strength.
An airmass that is very warm and dry would be what?
An airmass that is very warm and dry would be classified as a continental tropical (cT) airmass. These airmasses form over hot and arid regions, such as deserts, and bring warm and dry conditions to areas they move into.
How do you use airmass in a sentence?
"The air mass moved north over the Pacific"
What effect does ocean currents have?
It affects the temperature and Humidity of a climate...(marintime airmass is develping and being moved with winds that carry water vapor and are being deposited over the continental airmass)
What are winds that blow around earth in given directions over long distances?
airmass
Happens when force moves an object over a distance?
speed
What is an airmass source region?
An airmass source region is an extensive area of the earth's surface over which bodies of air remain for a sufficient time to acquire characteristic temperature and moisture properties imparted by that surface.
What are huge bodies of air that form over water or land in tropical or polar regions?
airmass
What happens to glucose as it moves from consumer to consumer?
people die get over it!
What happens to air over hot surfaces?
It moves faster and rises
What is the difference between maritime tropical and polar?
Compared to a maritime tropical airmass, a maritime polar airmass has lower temperature and less water vapor.
What causes air to cool by simply passing through fan blades?
The fan doesn't cool the air. The fan simply moves the air. The cooling happens whenair moves over your skin. When that happens, it causes moisture on your skin toevaporate, and the evaporated moisture draws heat away with it.That's why the old-fashioned way was to wave a fancy decorated paper fan ... or asection of newspaper ... back and forth in front of your face. Just to get the air moving.The electric fan just saves you the trouble of waving your hand back and forth.
When the temperature light is on or the gauge moves into the red what is the proper response?
To pull over and turn the car off to let it cool down.
