  1. Convective lifting occurs when the sun heats the Earth's surface, causing air to become less dense and rise.
  2. Orographic lifting happens when air is forced to rise over a topographic barrier like a mountain range.
  3. Frontal lifting occurs at the boundaries of different air masses, where warmer, less dense air is forced to rise over colder, denser air.
  4. Convergence lifting happens when air currents from different directions converge and are forced to rise.

What is the difference between unstable and stable air?

. Unstable air, if lifted, will rise by itself without any forcing. Stable air, if lifted, will tend to sink back down.,


When stable air is forced to rise are storms expected?

How badly injured do you have to be to be air lifted?

well when I was in a car crash, a little girl had to be air lifted. the ambulance people thought she had fractured her skull. so you would have to be really badly hurt or unconscious to be air lifted. Sometimes the choice to airlift a patient is also made depending on where they were injured. Someone breaking a leg would normally get an ambulance ride, but if they did it in a rocky, hilly area with no road access, then they would be air lifted.

When warm air is lifted up over the cold air it is called?

When warm air is lifted up over cold air, it is called "overrunning" or "warm air advection." This process leads to the warm air rising, cooling, and condensing to form clouds and precipitation as it interacts with the cold air at the surface.


Why do clouds usually form high in the sky instead of by the earth surface?

Clouds form as a result of water vapor condensing for freezing as air cools. One of the most common ways for this to occur is when air is lifted to a higher elevation and cools as it decompresses.
