Cold Pool Formation

Cold Pool Formation is a meteorological phenomenon denoting the accumulation of dense, cold air at the surface due to radiative cooling and gravity-driven drainage in stable atmospheric conditions, distinguishing it from other slope flow processes by its role in initiating and sustaining shallow, horizontally extensive layers of cooled air in valleys and basins.
