How wind works

Wind is simply air in motion. This motion can be in any
direction, but in most cases the horizontal component of
wind flow greatly exceeds the flow that occurs vertically.

Wind is caused by differences in atmospheric pressure.

Wind speeds vary based on geography, topography and
season. Wind is produced by the uneven heating of the
Earth's surface by the Sun, variations in the earth's
surface. and the earth's rotation.
Wind energy is a natural resource that can never run out.
The Earth's surface is made of land, desert, water, and
forest areas which absorb the Sun·s radiant energy at People use this wind flow, or motion energy. for many
different rates. Wind flow patterns are modified by the purposes such as sailing and flying a kite. The wind flow,
earth's terrain, bodies of water, and vegetative cover. can also be harvested by modern wind turbines and used
to generate electricity.
