Which of the symbols shown in illustration D018NG below represents an occluded front?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D.
The symbol D in the illustration represents an occluded front, which is a type of weather front where a cold front overtakes a warm front. This is the standard symbol used on weather maps and charts to depict an occluded front, as defined by the National Weather Service and other regulatory bodies that govern maritime weather reporting.
The other options (A, B, and C) represent different weather front symbols, such as a warm front or a cold front, which are distinct from the occluded front symbol shown in D.
