On the 300-mb chart (Fig), suppose the winds are blowing parallel to the contour lines.

FIGURE

(a) On the chart, mark where regions of convergence and divergence are occurring.


(b) Put an L on the chart where you might expect to observe a developing mid-latitude cyclone at the surface.


(c) Put an H on the chart where you might expect to observe a surface anticyclone.


(d) In which directions would the surface cyclonic storm and anticyclone most likely move?


(e) In terms of convergence and divergence, what are the necessary conditions for the intensification of the surface mid-latitude storm? For the building of the anticyclone?
