Figure 4.11. Frontal frequencies (top, fronts per day) and mean 850 hPa temperature
gradients (bottom, K (100 km) −1 ) for winter and summer. White areas in the frontal
frequency maps represent regions with known problems related to extreme topography
and surface heating. Areas where the mean temperature gradient exceeds 0.5 K
(100 km) −1 are shaded (adapted from Serreze et al., 2001 , by permission of AMS).
