Following are the four major types of weather fronts and their information:
Cold front:
- The weather front that is formed due to the replacement of warm air by cool air close to the ground is known as 'cold front'.
- This front is characterized by the presence of a low-pressure zone as the warm air here rises up and gets replaced by cold air gradually.
Warm front
- The weather front that is formed due to the replacement of cool air by warm air away from the ground is known as 'warm front'
- This transition zone is characterized by the presence of a high-pressure zone.
Stationary front:
- The front that is formed when the cold and warm fronts cease to move is called a 'stationary front'.
- Depending upon the temperature of the air mass at this transition zone, the pressure variates.
Occluded front:
- When the cold air mass from a cold front moves past the warm front in order to meet the cold air on the other side of the warm front, an occluded front is formed.
- This front is characterized by low-pressure transition zones.
