The relationship between vorticity and convergence is such that
 
  A) angular momentum is not conserved.

  D) an increase in one value necessarily means a decrease in the other.

Question 2

Describe how changes in vorticity in the upper troposphere can lead to changes in surface pressure.

Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Vorticity aloft creates areas of divergence and convergence, which create areas of rising and sinking air, creating low or high pressure at the surface.
