Advective


Advective refers to the transport or movement of a substance or property (such as heat, mass, or momentum) by the flow of a fluid, such as air or water. In atmospheric science, advective processes are important in understanding weather and climate, as they can affect the distribution and evolution of atmospheric properties, such as temperature, humidity, and pressure. For example, the advection of warm, moist air can lead to the formation of clouds and precipitation, while the advection of cold air can lead to the development of low pressure systems and the occurrence of severe weather events.
