Question 1257Navigation General

You are correct, the answer D "depends on whether warm type or cold type occlusion" is the correct answer. The temperature change with the passage of an occluded front depends on whether it is a warm type occlusion or a cold type occlusion. In a warm type occlusion, the temperature will rise as the front passes. In a cold type occlusion, the temperature will drop as the front passes. This is because the nature of the air masses involved in each type of occlusion (warm vs. cold) determines how the temperature changes. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately capture the nuanced relationship between the type of occlusion and the resulting temperature change.
