a-plus an occluded front
When two different air masses meet, they create a boundary known as a front. This front can lead to various weather phenomena, such as precipitation, clouds, and changes in temperature and wind direction, depending on the characteristics of the air masses involved. The denser air mass often pushes the lighter one upward, leading to instability and potential storm development. The type of front formed (cold, warm, stationary, or occluded) influences the resulting weather patterns.
Stationary Front
It would be a stationary front.
Air masses are separated by fronts, which are boundaries between different air masses that have distinct temperature, humidity, and pressure characteristics. These fronts can be classified as cold fronts, warm fronts, stationary fronts, or occluded fronts, depending on the movement and interaction of the air masses involved. The differences in temperature and moisture can lead to various weather phenomena, such as storms or clear skies, depending on the type of front and the air masses it separates.

An occluded front.
When two different air masses meet, they create a boundary known as a front. This front can lead to various weather phenomena, such as precipitation, clouds, and changes in temperature and wind direction, depending on the characteristics of the air masses involved. The denser air mass often pushes the lighter one upward, leading to instability and potential storm development. The type of front formed (cold, warm, stationary, or occluded) influences the resulting weather patterns.
A stationary front moves the slowest among different types of fronts. It is called stationary because the boundary between two air masses stays in one place and doesn't move much.
Stationary Front

A tri-split front.

air masses
The boundaries between air masses are called front. The types of air mass and movements involved determine the type of front. Warm front: a warm air mass plows into a cold air mass. Cold front: a cold air mass plows into a warm air mass. Stationary front: The warm and cold air masses move little relative to one another. Occluded front: A cold front catches up with a warm front, sending the warm air mass aloft. Dry line: a dry air mass plows into a moist air mass.
A stationary front occurs when warm and cold air masses remain in the same place, with neither one displacing the other. This can lead to prolonged periods of precipitation and unsettled weather as the boundary between the two air masses wavers back and forth.
