- When a body of cold air near earth’s surface moves into a region occupied by warmer air, the point of intersection is known as a cold front. What does this do to the vertical motion of the warm air and why? What does this do to surface pressure ahead of the cold front and why ?Does this tend to instigate cyclonic or anti-cyclonic atmospheric rotation ? Does this rotation tend to bring relatively warm air toward the poles or toward the lower latitudesarrow_forwardAs the atmosphere and ocean move, they are deflected due to the spin of the earth. Is the deflection to the right or to the left in the Northern Hemisphere? Is this the same in the Southern Hemisphere ? In both hemispheres, a low pressure will instigate cyclonic flow.
