  • Question 142-9

    Which of following correct regarding a warm anticyclone It increases in intensity with increasing altitude. there are two main types of anticyclone a cold warm anticyclone cold anticyclones form typically over polar climates here temperatures are very low the air often cold dense an inversion tends to develop at low altitudes with anticyclones this prevents clouds from building any further if this so any cumulus which does form during daytime will quickly stop growing spread into a layer of stratocumulus then disperse when night comes at night when temperatures drop below freezing frosts are very likely to form warm anticyclones form mainly over tropical or sub tropical climates where temperatures are often warm both at day night with these highs air subsiding at quite a depth through troposphere this tends to hold back restrict any cloud formation if any cloud do form they will often be erratic well broken these being mainly cumulus stratocumulus.
