An air mass that forms in the north Atlantic ocean in winter over cold water and then comes ashore is a Continental polar (cP) or continental arctic (cA).

These air masses are chill, dehydrated, dry, and stable. These develop over northern Canada and Alaska as a consequence of radiational cooling. They drive southward, east of the Rockies into the Plains, then eastward.

Air masses are also determined and established on whether they develop over land or over water. Maritime air masses form over the water and are moist. Continental air masses form over land and are dry. Thus, an air mass that extends over northern Canada is named a continental polar air mass and is cold and dry.

Whats an advantage of using a 1:1000 scale on a map
xeze [42]

Answer:

Well think about the size of our world. Its pretty big and it would be really hard to map something out the size of the world. Using a scale like this 1:1000 because it shows 1 for every 1000 miles or kilometers. Or even greater units of measurement, less spaced and yet still an accurate representation. If put through the backed scaled equation, you would get the actual size jsut by multiplying the number in this case 1 or more by 1000 and you’d get the exact measurements.
