Are masses the same as fronts?
No. An air mass is a large mass of air with given characteristics of temperature and humidity that distinguish it from surrounding air masses. A front is the boundary between two air masses. For example, a cold front marks were a cold air mass moves in and pushes a warmer one out of the way.
Why dont warm air masses form over the North Atlantic or Pacific?

How does the coriolis effect affect air masses from north pole toward equator?

What moving air masses cause?
