  1. Convective lifting occurs when the sun heats the Earth's surface, causing air to become less dense and rise.

  2. Orographic lifting happens when air is forced to rise over a topographic barrier like a mountain range.

  3. Frontal lifting occurs at the boundaries of different air masses, where warmer, less dense air is forced to rise over colder, denser air.

  4. Convergence lifting happens when air currents from different directions converge and are forced to rise.
