The mT and the cP air masses are total contrasts from one another. The mT air masses represents the maritime tropical air masses, while the cP air masses represent the continental air masses.

  • The mT air masses form over the seas/oceans in the tropical regions, while the cP air masses form over the land in the polar regions.
  • The mT air masses have very high humidity as they form above water, while the cP air masses have low humidity as they form over land.
  • The mT air masses are warm because they form in the low latitudes, while the cP air masses are cold as they form in the higher latitudes.
  • The mT air masses have low air pressure, while the cP air masses have high air pressure.
  • In general, the mT air masses bring in warm and wet weather, while the cP air masses bring in cold and dry weather.

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

D. set it outside and check on it every day

Explanation:

In order for Brittany to be able to study the soil erosion by using a simplified method of what the farmers do on the slopes to minimize it, she will need to take the pan, leave it outside, and check on it every day. By having the required shape, the soil will give somewhat an example of the soil on the slopes that has been plowed so that the furrows run along the hills. Since the hills do not move or tilt, the pan with the soil should be stable, static. Being put outside, it will be exposed to the natural conditions that cause the erosion, such as the water and wind. Brittany will need to check upon the soil every day and make detailed notes and measurements to see what the erosive effects are on it.

Which gulf is off the southern coast of the united states?
Brums [2.3K]
<h2>Answer: The Gulf of Mexico </h2>

The Gulf of Mexico is an ocean basin that formed after the collision of the continental plates and the sinking of the seabed during the rupture of the former Pangea mega continent millions of years ago.

This gulf is also the ninth largest water surface in the world, which is contained among the littorals of Mexico, the United States and the island of Cuba. Therefore, this mass of water corresponds to the Atlantic Ocean in the northern part of the American Continent.
