noun

वायु राशि

A widespread body of air, the properties of which can be identified as: (a) having been established while that air was situated over a particular region of the Earth's surface (airmass source region) and (b) undergoing specific modifications while in transit away from the source region. An air mass is often defined as a widespread body of air that is approximately homogeneous in its horizontal extent, particularly with reference to temperature and moisture distribution; in addition, the vertical temperature and moisture variations are approximately the same over its horizontal extent.

Examples :

"The cold airmass moving south brought freezing temperatures and snow to our city. "

दक्षिण की ओर बढ़ती ठंडी वायु राशि हमारे शहर में जमा देने वाला तापमान और बर्फ लाई।
