Question
Look at the diagrams below. They are available
on the Moodle website as a separate
download. Either print them out, or open them
in a program that you can draw lines on and
save the diagram. You should be able to do
this in paint, powerpoint, word etc. In my
opinion it would be easiest to print these,
annotate them as described below,
photograph with you phone and upload the
image.

0.1 Both these southern hemisphere weather
maps correspond to the same weather.
- Draw isotherms every 2°C and identify cold
and warm centres, on the left hand
temperature plot
- Draw isobars every 0.2 kPa and identify high
and low pressures, on the right hand pressure
plot
- Identify the frontal zone and draw the frontal
boundaries in pencil. Frontal zone are regions
of tight isotherm packing.
- On the warm side of the frontal zone identify
if the front is warm (warm moving towards
cold) and or cold (cold moving towards warm).
The motions can be identified by looking at the
pressure field, knowing that winds circle
clockwise around lows in the southern
hemisphere and then seeing if the warm or
cold air is advancing into the other air body.
If you need help look at the instructions on
p280-281 Stull or ask.
