Week 9 - Fronts and Frontogenesis


    Frontogenesis is a measure of the "creation" of a front. Usually it refers to the strength of the horizontal temperature gradient

    Frontogenesis also is a good way to help predict mesoscale precipitation bands. Because it can be linked to a narrow circulation with upward motion, frontogenesis can be a good forecast tool
