There are continental glaciers in and around the Arctic and Antarctic circles, and covering parts of Greenland and other polar region islands.
cT= continental Tropical cP=continental Polar mT=maritime Tropical there is also : mP=maritime Polar cA=continental Arctic c(continental)=dry/not very humid m(maritime)=wet/humid T(Tropical=warm P(Polar)=cold A(Arctic)=very cold these are all terms used during a weather topic
A continental polar air mass is associated with sunny days and cold nights. This type of air mass is both cold and dry. Other types of air masses are continental arctic and continental tropical.
In case of maritime tropical region, the air blows are warm enough and contains some water in it. In continental polar and continental arctic, due to its location at the poles, the air here is dry and cold because of its low temperature. In case of maritime polar, the air here is moist enough and sufficiently cool.
continental polar
I believe there are only 5 different air masses in the US: 1. Arctic Polar 2. Continental Polar 3. Maritime Polar 4. Continental Tropical 5. Maritime Tropical Hope this helped!
there are 5 types of air masses... 1. Arctic Polar 2. Continental Polar 3. Maritime Polar 4. Continental Tropical 5. Maritime Tropical

The five types of air masses are polar, tropical, maritime, continental, and arctic. Polar air masses are cold and dry, tropical air masses are warm and dry, maritime air masses are warm and moist, continental air masses are dry and cold, and arctic air masses are extremely cold and dry.
Either continental polar (cP) or continental arctic (cA).
Arctic Continental Polar. Why do you ask?
A continental polar air mass is associated with sunny days and cold nights. This type of air mass is both cold and dry. Other types of air masses are continental arctic and continental tropical.
maritime polar, continental polar, maritime tropical, and continental tropical
Polar bears live only in the northern polar regions - which includes the Arctic and Arctic Circle regions. They do not live in the Antarctic.
Yes and no. The Polar regions include both the Arctic and the Antarctic.
