... air masses are classified according to the characteristics of their source region or area of formation. A source region can have one of four temperature attributes: equatorial, tropical, polar or arctic. Air masses are also classified as being either continental or maritime in terms of moisture characteristics. Combining these two categories, several possibilities are commonly found associated with North America: maritime polar (mP), continental polar (cP), maritime tropical (mT), continental tropical (cT), and continental arctic (A). 7, record 1, English, - source%20region

Eastern North America can be divided up in a variety of ways for purposes of source-receptor modeling as described in Chapter 4. In the United States many modelers have used a basic 80 km grid with the cells aggregated into 63 geographical areas ... Of particular interest in the present context is the impact of individual or combined source areas on the ten areas designated as sensitive receptor areas. 3, record 2, English, - source%20area
