, they became less dense when heated they become less dense and goes up in the atmosphere
and it cycles back at the top and creates a convention current
nangyayari yan dahil sa difference ng temperature, difference ng pressure on the global scale
So ung winds sa north goes down, so it goes south but Coriolis effect makes it different,
ginagawa nya itong pa right so it goes down right and tawag don Polar Easterlies
It reflects the same sa south so from south it goes up naman kase of the high pressure sa South
and sa equator is low so it goes up and Coriolis effect so it turns to the left so its called the
same polar easterlies
and from the equator to the 30°N so galing sa 30°N ang air go downs and turn to right and get
called TRADE WINDS comes from the east to the west
and same sa South Hemisphere from the bottom it turns to left. (So mirrored and labas)
and from the 30° - 60° yung wala pang arrows, so galing sa mga wind sa convection current ung air
it from south to north. and it goes from the west to east so this is called prevailing westerlies.
Samethings happened in the south, in the mid latitudes where is the current air going? down,
and turning to west to east
So something happens in the Middle or at the equator sailors get stuck (walang movement of
air) so tawag dun doldrums
and sa 30N naman or Midlatitude same thing happens no movement and they call it HORSE
LATITUDE
WHY HORSES? because English traders have horses sa ship so kinakain nila para gumalaw
sila sa mga area na iyon.
So mula naman sa
Westerlies and
Polar Easterlies
yung boundaries
dun mag chchange because of the High Pressure or Cold from the P.E and Lower Pressure or
Warmer from P.W
So they try to go at the direction they wanted but they cant, so it make a Jet Stream na Swirly
Jet Stream is a fast moving air that moves west to east
