Explore Uplift & Precipitation in Weather Systems

Learn about various types of uplift in weather systems including convectional, orographic, and frontal uplift, as well as the role of precipitation in weather patterns. Discover different weather phenomena and events like tornadic events and downbursts. Delve into the importance of uplift in different biomes and regions like the Palouse biome and Marine West Coast. Gain insights into weather fronts, jet streams, air masses, and atmospheric conditions that influence uplift and precipitation.
