Question
air masses form only over certain places on earth. but after they form, air masses can move away from their source regions. as they move, air masses influence weather in other parts of the planet. for example, weather conditions in england change as different air masses move across the country. this map shows three of the six types of air masses that influence weather in england. match each labeled air mass with the weather conditions that it would bring as it travels across england. warm, dry weather warm, humid weather cool, humid weather air mass type air mass a: formed over a high - latitude but ice - free area of the atlantic ocean air mass b: formed over the tropical atlantic ocean air mass c: formed over the low - latitude deserts of northern africa
Air mass A, formed over a high - latitude but ice - free area of the Atlantic Ocean, is likely to bring cool, humid weather as it is from a relatively cool and oceanic source. Air mass B, formed over the tropical Atlantic Ocean, is warm and picks up moisture from the ocean, bringing warm, humid weather. Air mass C, formed over the low - latitude deserts of northern Africa, is warm and dry as deserts are dry regions.
