Why? 9.What is the lifting condensation level of this parcel after descending to sea level on the leeward side? Hint: Think about what the lifting condensation level represents and how the air could reach that state again. 10.These last questions are related to midlatitude cyclones. In a midlatitude cyclone, where would you expect to experience precipitation? 11.What atmospheric ranges would you expect to feel as a cold front passes by you? Part 4 Bonus Directions Research and find a credible map of a specific physical geography phenomena (from the lithosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere or atmosphere).Post a new reply to this discussion board with the map (as an attached .doc, .pdf, or functioning web link), and citation. Examples of credible maps of a specific physical geography phenomena: Global Rain Forest Distribution (National Geographic 2013 http://images.nationalgeographic.com/wpf/media-live/photos/000/063/cache/map-world-rainforest_6367_600x450.jpg (Links to an external site.))Research the map pattern and process. Identify the geographic pattern(s) on the map.Identify the process in the map, and describe your hypothesis about what is specifically causing the pattern to occur and why? Identify a research question that you have after thinking about the pattern and processes in the map. Your TWO replies may include the following language: "The map shows_______ pattern." There seems to be a pattern on the map in these locations ___________." My hypothesis why that pattern would occur is ________________." After seeing this map I have the following research questions _________________."
