It dose
It separates hot air masses and cold 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.
The geographical procese are;High air temperatureAmounts of fuelLow humidity, especially from droughtsHigh air temperaturesTerrain
continental air masses
It dose
Air masses affect climate in the same way mountains or mountain barriers do.

There are two types of air masses: COLD AIR AND WARM AIR.Cold Air Masses-Cold air masses can cause thunderstorms and even tornadoes.Warm Air Masses-Warm air masses can bring many hours of steady rain and snow.
It separates hot air masses and cold air masses
The temperature and density of the air masses. the air masses moves when hot air and cold air gets together
There are two types of air masses: COLD AIR AND WARM AIR.Cold Air Masses-Cold air masses can cause thunderstorms and even tornadoes.Warm Air Masses-Warm air masses can bring many hours of steady rain and snow.
Air masses are described by two basic characteristics. Temperature and moisture, or humidity, are the main characteristics that define an air mass.
