What moist air masses that form near the equator are called?
maritime tropical
How do scientists classify air masses?
Scientists classify air masses according to their general characteristics and latitude. Artic air masses form at around 60 degrees latitude, Polar masses are at around 40 degrees latitude, warm tropical air masses are at 15 degrees latitude and very hot air masses form near the equator.
What is the climate of the equator?
It is generally hot and humid near the equator
The climate in the temperature zone is?
Precipitation, Barometric pressures, Wind, geography/terrrain, water masses.
Polar air masses are cooler than tropical air masses because the place where they start I what?
Polar air masses are cooler than tropical air masses because they originate from high-latitude regions closer to the poles, where temperatures are generally colder. Conversely, tropical air masses originate from low-latitude regions near the equator, where temperatures are generally warmer. This temperature difference between the two regions accounts for the inherent temperature contrast between polar and tropical air masses.

What are the characteristics of the four types of air masses?
there is maritime, tropical, continental, and polar, (correct me if im wrong) maritime means over the ocean, tropical means near the equator continental means over land, and polar means far from the equator
