The mass that forms over the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean is called a maritime tropical air mass. The source region for this air mass is labeled with the letter "m."
Yes, the continental tropical air mass often forms over Mexico during the summer months, bringing dry and hot air to the southwestern United States. This air mass originates from the hot desert regions of northern Mexico and can lead to high temperatures and a lack of moisture in the affected areas.
Avalanches and rock slides are the fastest forms of mass wasting.
