Zusammenfassung:[...]there is reasonably good surface and upper-air data coverage for detailed case studies. Most of these studies consider three basic models of frontal motion: shallow-water flow over terrain, stratified flow over terrain in which a passive scalar is advected over the mountains, and an imposed deformation field forcing frontogenesis as the front passes over terrain.
