Air Mass & Fronts
Across
- 7. a type of weather front where warm air masses overtake cold air masses
- 9. winds that blow mostly in one direction, moving air masses
- 10. a measure of how much water vapor is in the air
- 12. the liquid phase of water
- 13. the boundary between two air masses
- 14. the force of attraction between two objects because of their masses
- 15. a type of weather front where cold air masses overtake warm air masses
- 17. the process by which solids form
Down
- 1. the process by which water changes from a liquid to a gas or vapor
- 2. the process of water vapor turning into liquid water
- 3. the circulation of air due to heating and cooling of molecules
- 4. water beneath the surface of the ground
- 5. a type of weather front where a cold air mass and a warm air mass meet, but neither pushes the other out of the way
- 6. the process of water being released from clouds in the form of rain, hail or snow
- 8. a type of weather front where an air mass gets separated from the ground by a fast-moving cold air mass, resulting in heavy rain
- 11. a large body of air with roughly the same temperature and humidity
- 12. the gaseous phase of water
- 16. energy produced or radiated by the Sun
