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.
Temperature and humidity levels are the two main characteristics used to classify air masses. Temperature determines whether an air mass is warm or cold, while humidity levels indicate if an air mass is dry or moist.

temperature and humidity, enabling the air mass to maintain its characteristics as it moves across the Earth's surface. This uniformity in air properties allows meteorologists to classify air masses based on their temperature and humidity characteristics.

In addition to their overall temperature air masses are classified according to the surface over which they form. continental air masses form over land, and are likely to be dry. Maritime air masses form over water and are humid. Polar air masses form at high altitudes and are cold. Tropical air masses form at low latitudes and are warm

Scientists classify silicon as a metalloid, which is an element that exhibits properties of both metals and non-metals.
Scientists classify vertebrate into different groups by the way the animal looks or how big or small it is
By looking at the water to find the classify
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.
