Briefly explain how airflow aloft aids the formation of cyclones at the surface
What will be an ideal response?
Airflow aloft plays an important role in maintaining cyclonic and anticyclonic circulation. As long as divergence (spreading out) aloft is equal to or greater than the surface inflow, the low pressure and its accompanying convergence can be sustained.
