Convergence resulting in rising atmospheric motion at the surface can occur in all of the following settings EXCEPT
A)where upper air flow speeds up and there is upper air divergence.
B)air encountering topographic barriers like mountains.
C)collision of two wind systems like along the equator.
D)air moving from a large body of land to a large body of water.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Convergence at the surface typically occurs when air masses collide or are forced to rise, such as when encountering topographic barriers or due to upper air divergence. However, air moving from land to water generally involves divergence, not convergence, as air spreads out over the water.
