wind systems that result in precipitation (frontal lifting)

Question 1

convergent lifting

Answer 1

warm moist air converging at the surface rises and cools - surrounding air is warm thus less dense

Question 2

convectional precipitation

Answer 2

localized spontaneous vertical air movement intense insolation over small area causes air to rise and condos

Question 3

orogrpahic lifting

Answer 3

moving air forced over a mountain propelled by surface winds and air piling up behind wet windward side and dry leeward site warms up due to the difference in pressure

Question 4

frontal lifting

Answer 4

results of colliding air masses with significantly different temperatures pushes warm air up due to density causing severe precipitation
