Question

Analyze and Conclude 1. Describing In which direction are the surface winds moving? 2. Identifying At which stage of formation is the cyclone? Explain your answer. Refer to Figure 14 if necessary 3. Explaining Is the air in the center of the cyclone rising or falling? What effect does this have on the potential for condensation and precipitation? 4. Inferring Find the center of the low, which is marked with the letter L. What type of front has formed here? What happens to the maritime tropical air in this type of front?

Explanation / Answer

1)

Anticlockwise direction = From the above graph the direction of the cold front wind and the warm front wind is all towrads east to Nort-east so it can be said that the motion of air is anticlockwise.

2)

Middle stage - because the cyclones are formed by the motion of the air at the atmospheric lows and then its upclimbing in comapnion with the anticlockwise whirling and upwelling air, this phase is not the new one and not tooo much old so it is in middle stage

3)

The center of the cyclone is atmospheric lows where a large volume of the air converges out and then these air stars upwelling or rising and accompanied by the adiabatic cooling as the height increases and this causes decrease in the dew point and also the relative humidity touched the 100% for different dew point temperatures. This adiabatic cooling results in the condensation of the air and results in the rainfall or precipitation.

4)

The center of the low is under the isobar of 996 mb, this low is the intersection or the overlapping of the cold air front over the cool air front and thus forms the occluded fronts, this front is always happens after the raining or sometimes it can also occur before the rainfall
