Question

Temperature inversions: are of greatest concern in areas with relatively flat topography typically last for weeks at a time cause gases and particlate matter to remain trapped near the ground all of the choices are correct occur when a layer of warm air is trapped near the ground by colder, upper layer

Answer 1

cause gases and particulate matter to remain trapped near the ground

Step-by-step explanation:

• The temperature inversion is a layer of air that is found in the troposphere. It states that when the air rises with the height it lower down the temperatures and as the air gets thinned.

• As the warm air is held above the cod air the normal profile with altitude is inverted. It acts as a layer of separation or boundary of different temperatures. The colder and denser air mass is found near the ground while warm and less dense above it.
