ATSC 113 - Snow Sports question and answers 2024 verified to passWhat is a diurnal slope flow? - correct answer A slope flow that is induced by temperature changes over the course of a day (diurnal) as the sun heats the surface and the surface cools during night this diurnal cycle is most pronounced under a high pressure system What is pressure? - correct answer The weight of the air above you What is an anticyclone? - correct answer Also known as a high pressure system, it's a region ...

This note provides in-depth annotated diagrams and summaries for both the microclimate and anticyclone sections in the IEB Grade 12 Geography syllabus. It is useful for revising for exams and tests

The energy supplying a mid latitude (extratropical) cyclone can come from both the potential energy contained in air mass temperature contrasts and oceanic fluxes of heat (sensible and latent), while tropical cyclones are powered only by ocean heat fluxes - primarily latent heat. - True East Coast cyclonic storms are efficient precipitation producers because of proximity to the warm Atlantic ocean, where ocean moisture fluxes are very high. - True Compared to hurricanes, extratropical cycl...
