EN ATPL Meteorology Questions in English
Practise Meteorology
An aircraft is flying through the polar front jet stream from south to north, beneath the core. How would the OAT change, in the northern hemisphere, during this portion of the flight?
In a representative North American winter model, which of these approximate heights best matches the core of the Arctic frontal jet?
What is the average height of the jet core within a polar front jet stream?
An aircraft is flying from south to north, above the polar front jet stream, at FL 400 in the southern hemisphere. What change, if any, in temperature will be experienced?
What minimum wind speed is specified for a jet stream in the EASA ATPL meteorology learning objectives?
A wind sounding near a Northern Hemisphere polar-front jet gives this profile: 900 hPa 220°/20 kt; 800 hPa 220°/25 kt; 700 hPa 230°/35 kt; 500 hPa 260°/60 kt; 400 hPa 280°/85 kt; 300 hPa 300°/100 kt; 250 hPa 310°/120 kt; 200 hPa 310°/80 kt. Assuming approximately geostrophic flow above the friction layer, which idealised frontal-advection pattern is most consistent with the veering wind above that layer?
Which of the following types of jet streams can be observed all year round?
In the classical polar-front jet model, which statement best describes the core location?
Looking downstream along a cyclonically curved polar-front jet in the Northern Hemisphere, which horizontal side of the core is commonly more prone to clear-air turbulence near core level?
When and at approximately what altitude is the Asian–African monsoon Tropical Easterly Jet primarily found?
