Refer to figure.
The polar front is the junction/boundary between the Ferrell (tropical air mass) and Polar cells (polar air mass). At this low-pressure zone, relatively warm, moist air of the Ferrel Cell runs into relatively cold, dry air of the Polar cell.
In the Northern hemisphere:
- Warm air mass (Tropical airmass) => South
- Cold air mass (Polar air mass) => North
The Mediterranean Front is the boundary between Polar Continental or Maritime air from
Europe and Tropical Continental air from North Africa (disappears in summer).
