Been a while since studying weather ... so double check these ...

13. Warm air mass above ground = > an 'inversion' ... Normally, atmospheric temperature decreases ~2°C / 1000 ft ... Reversal of that trend is due to trapped warm air above ground and is referred to as 'an inversion'.

14. Swirling center of low air pressure = > a 'cyclone' ... In the Northern Hemisphere the flow is counter clockwise but in the Southern Hemisphere such a phenomenon is clockwise flow.

15. High-pressure centers of dry air = > a 'ridge' which is contrast to a low-pressure center called a 'trough'. Hope these are right. : -)
