          The most frequent type of ground or surface-based temperature inversion is that which is produced
          by
          A) terrestrial radiation on a clear, relatively still night.
          B) warm air being lifted rapidly aloft in the vicinity of mountainous terrain.
          C) the movement of colder air under warm air, or the movement of warm air over cold air.
