Is it true that Air masses that form near the equator are tropical air masses?
yes
How do air masses of different pressures and temperatures move around?
Air masses of different pressures and temperature move around the Earth. The cold air masses that form at the poles move toward the equator, while the warm air masses that form at the equator move toward the poles.
How are changes in weather are caused by the interaction of air masses?
Fronts do not often occur near the Equator because air masses there do not have big teperature
How changes in weathers are caused the interaction of air masses?
Fronts do not often occur near the Equator because air masses there do not have big teperature
What Is air pressure at the equator?
doldrum
Is it true that Air masses that form near the equator are tropical air masses?
yes
Why do air masses move from the polar regions towards the equator?
Atmospheric pressure determines the way air travels. Air filters itself, and moving to the equator better increases it's chance to be recycled into filtered cleaner air for everyone.

Do polar air masses have air pressure?
yes
How does air pressure like to move?
air moves from areas of high pressure to low pressured areas. therefore the pressure makes air masses to move around the equator. but where in areas where the pressure difference is small then the air mass doesnt move it becomes stationary.
What are air masses that form near the equator called?
maritime tropical
Why are most deserts found on 30 degrees latitude?
The 30 degree latitude area is at the high pressure region developed by the sinking air from the Hadley Cell created by the low pressure rising air at the equator. Winds move from high to low pressure areas. The doldrums are located at the equator, this is a low pressure area. When the air sinks at the 30 degree latitude air moves away from the 30 toward the equator and 60 degree latitudes. Since air does not move toward the 30, there is no way to bring the maritime air masses to those desert areas.
How changes in weathers are caused the interaction of air masses?
Fronts do not often occur near the Equator because air masses there do not have big teperature

Does most cold air masses have higher air pressure than most warm air masses?
true
What Is air pressure at the equator?
doldrum
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.
