Question
1. True or False? Environmental wind shear with a magnitude of 15 m/s and a shear depth of less than 3 km suggests that supercell formation is very likely.
2. True or False? A cold pool in the tropics will likely be much stronger than a cold pool in Minnesota.
3. True or False: In a moderately to strongly sheared environment, the downshear side of the cold pool has enhanced lift.
4. Which of the following combinations of cold pool propagation speed and low-level vertical wind shear gives an optimal state for cold pool lifting?
propagation speed = 40 knots
low-level vertical wind shear = 40 knots
propagation speed = 25 knots
low-level vertical wind shear = 40 knots
propagation speed = 50 knots
low-level vertical wind shear = 40 knots
propagation speed = 40 knots
low-level vertical wind shear = 40 knots
propagation speed = 25 knots
low-level vertical wind shear = 40 knots
propagation speed = 50 knots
low-level vertical wind shear = 40 knots
Explanation / Answer
1. False( supercell formation is likely when wind shear wlis less than 10m/s)
2.true ( intersecting cold pools trigger more convection than the normal ones)
3 .true
