Discussion
Which consequence follows from frictional inflow into a surface low?
Answer: A
Mass converging into the low near the surface must leave, and the only available route is upward, producing the ascent that generates the cloud and precipitation associated with lows. The same argument gives descent and clear skies over surface highs. Friction removes energy so the circulation weakens rather than strengthens, a process known as spin-down, and the movement of a system is governed by the steering flow aloft rather than by friction.
