Geopotential in 850 hPa (solid, black lines) and Temperature advection in K/6h (colored lines)

Description:

The map "T-Adv 850" shows the advection of cold or warm air at 850 hPa level. Negative values indicate cold advection, while positive values indicate warm air advection. Advection of warm or cold air causes the geopotential height to respectively rise or drop, producing vertical rising and sinking motion of air. There is, however, not a direct relationship between temperature advection and resultant vertical motion in the atmosphere since other lifting and sinking mechanisms can complicate the picture, e.g. vorticity advection (see "V-Adv maps").
In weather forecasting, temperature advection maps are often used to locate the postion of wam and cold fronts. Cold advection is common behind cold fronts, while warm advection is common behind warm fronts and ahead of cold fronts. Higher in the atmosphere temperature advection is getting less pronounced, as horizontal much more uniform in temperature and the flow is more zonal.

NWP:

La prévision numérique du temps (PNT) est une application de la météorologie et de l'informatique. Elle repose sur le choix d'équations mathématiques offrant une proche approximation du comportement de l'atmosphère réelle. Ces équations sont ensuite résolues, à l'aide d'un ordinateur, pour obtenir une simulation accélérée des états futurs de l'atmosphère. Le logiciel mettant en œuvre cette simulation est appelé un modèle de prévision numérique du temps.
