| (documentation KatabaticWind EnglishLanguage "KatabaticWind is a downslope wind caused by the flow of an elevated, high-density air mass into a lower-density air mass below under the force of gravity. A katabatic wind originates from the difference of density of two air masses located above a slope. This density difference usually comes from temperature difference, even if humidity may also play a role. Schematically katabatic winds can be divided into two types for which the mechanisms are slightly different: the katabatic winds due to radiative cooling (the most common) and the fall winds.[Wikipedia]") | Weather.kif 2491-2497 | Katabatic wind is a subclass of wind |
