    Cumulonimbus.

  • 2

    The boundary between two different air masses is referred to as a ?

    Front.

  • 3

    When there is a temperature inversion, you would expect to experience?

    An increase in temperature as altitude is increased.

  • 4

    One of the most easily recognized discontinuities across a front is?

    A change in temperature.

  • 5

    What are the characteristics of stable air?

    Poor visibility and steady precipitation.

  • 6

    What would decrease the stability of an air mass?

    Warming from below.

  • 7

    Which weather conditions should be expected beneath a low-level temperature inversion layer when the relative humidity is high?

    Smooth air, poor visibility, fog haze, or low clouds.

  • 8

    What is meant by the term “dewpoint”?

    The temperature to which air must be cooled to become staturated.

  • 9

    Every phusical process of weather is accompanied by, or is the result of?

    Heat exchange.

  • 10

    What causes variations in altimeter settings between weather reporting points?

    Unequal heating of the Earth’s surface.

    A weather report indicates you can expect a low-level temperature inversion with high relative humidity. What weather conditions would you expect?

    Smoothe air, poor visibility, fog, haze, or low clouds.

  • 14

    Steady precipitation preceding a front is an indication of?

    Stratiform clouds with little or not turbulence.

  • 15

    Some of the characterisitics you would expect to see with an unstable air mass are.

    Turbulence and good surface visibility.

  • 16

    What are the characteristics of a moist, unstable air mass?

    Turbulence and shower precipitation.

  • 17

    A Characteristic you would expect to see with a stable air mass is?

    Poor surface visibility.

    What measurement can be used. To determine the stability of the atmosphere?

    Actual lapse rate.

  • 19

    What are the characteristics of an unstable atmosphere?

    A warm, humid air mass.

  • 20

    The suffix “Numbus,” used in naming clouds, means?

    A rain cloud.

  • 21

    Which will produce the least favorable conditions for the operation of a small UA?

    Warm, moist air.

  • 22

    Clouds, fog, or dew will always form when?
