Question

17. The strong converging wind flows would strengthen the temperature gradient and aid in enhancing uplift (enhancing the low pressure) along that portion of the frontal boundary in the vicinity of Oklahoma-Arkansas. In contrast, what would hinder strong air advection patterns? a. weaker winds b. more oblique (less direct) flow across isotherms c. widely spaced isotherms d. all of the above

Answer 1

d. all of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

The processes or phenomena that cause the air mass to acquire surface-adapted characteristics are solar radiation, vertical convection (when warm air near the earth's surface suddenly lifts into the upper layer of the troposphere and then returns to question). of days), advection (horizontal movement of the air mass when one replaces another of different characteristics) and turbulence.

Regarding air advection, some factors may prevent this phenomenon from happening with a very significant force. These factors are:

• weaker winds
• more oblique (less direct) flow across isotherms
• widely spaced isotherms
