What kind of air sinks?

What front will occur when warm air pushes over cold air?

Describe the four major types of fronts?

1) Warm front - warm air mass replacing a cold air mass at ground level. Typically shifts wind southeasterly to southwesterly. 2) Cold front - Cold air replacing warm air at ground level. Tyoically shifts southwesterly to northwesterly 3) Stationary front - Equal amount of energy between warm and cold air masses creating a "stalemate".


What is cold air pushing warm air which then cools and sinks pushing up more warm air?

What happens when a warm front moves into a cold front?

When a warm front moves into a cold front, the warm air gradually rises over the denser cold air. This can lead to the formation of clouds and precipitation. The warm air displaces the cold air, leading to a gradual increase in temperature and humidity.
