Document Summary

Available sep 15 at 5am - sep 21 at 10pm 7 days. This quiz was locked sep 21 at 10pm. Score for this attempt: 7 out of 7. The one atmospheric layer where almost all of our weather happens is called the troposphere https://canvas. ubc. ca/courses/39462/quizzes/121930. In which atmospheric layer does temperature increases with increasing altitude? stratosphere. The majority of commercial aircraft fly in this region in order to avoid storms and weather: To measure static stability, meteorologists first need to launch a rawinsonde to measure the sounding. Air that blows over a mountain can oscillate vertically (continue moving up and down in a smooth wavy motion, even when the air is downwind of the mountain) if the air is statically stable https://canvas. ubc. ca/courses/39462/quizzes/121930. On a very windy day, non-turbulent air that blows over a mountain can become turbulent downwind of the mountain if the air is statically neutral.
