Low Pressure Centers

Meteorological Effects
The ascent of air within a low-pressure center/) leads to adiabatic expansion and cooling. When the air parcel cools below its dew point temperature, condensation occurs, forming clouds and precipitation.
The relationship between the surface pressure deficit ($… -
Temperate Maritime Climate
Linked via "adiabatic expansion"
Precipitation in temperate maritime climates is typically abundant and distributed throughout the year, often resulting in a lack of a true dry season. Annual totals generally range from $600 \text{mm}$ to over $2,500 \text{mm}$, depending on orographic lifting caused by coastal mountain ranges.
A distinctive aspect of the precipitation regime is the prevalence of drizzle and light rain, rather than heavy downpours. This is attributed to the lower…
