Department of Atmospheric & Oceanic Sciences. Fronts: The Boundaries between Air Masses. A front is defined as the transition zone between two air masses of different density. . 8. th. Grade. Definition. Weather front – The area where two air masses meet and do not mix.. Front and Weather. Different types of fronts produce different patterns of weather. . There are four types of weather fronts:. Lab. Fronts!. Fronts!. What are fronts?. A narrow transition zone, or boundary, between differing synoptic scale air masses whose primary discontinuity is density. Fronts highlight . baroclinic. zones, where temperature advection and atmospheric energy is at work. Evaluation: See worksheet. A - Cold Front B = Warm Front B1. Cool air mas - warm air mass moves in. A2. Warm air mass - cool air mass moves in. B3. Bri An . air mass. is a . large . pool of air having similar temperature and moisture . characteristics. . An air mass occupies thousands of square miles of the Earth's surface. Air masses are . created . Warm Air Front. Warm Air Front. Warm air replaces cold air. w. arm air mass=higher temperature=lesser density. Rainfall increases as the . front approaches. Characteristics. Weather phenomenon. Prior to the Passing of the Front.

The source region is the geographic location the air mass developed over. . If air settles over one location for a long time, it develops the characteristic temperature and moisture of the area.. A large body of air having nearly uniform conditions of temperature and humidity at any given altitude.. Warm air. forms over . tropical. regions near the equator. . . T- Tropical. . Cold air. . . Movements of Air Masses and Fronts are vital to our . understanding. and . prediction. of Weather Systems. . Weather Forecasting. requires that we understand. :. Cyclones (.
