Mrs. Wharton’s Science Class. Wind. The horizontal movement of air from an area of high pressure to an area of lower pressure.. All winds are caused by differences in air pressure. Differences of air pressure are caused by unequal heat . Chapter 9. 1. Class #6, Wednesday, July 14, 2010. Wind: small scale and local systems. Chapter 9. 2. Class #6, Wednesday, July 14, 2010. Small-scale winds interacting with the environment. Scales of motion. G. VanNada. What are they?. Tropical cyclones that cross the subtropical ridge axis into the Westerlies recurve due to increased westerly flow. The winds are predominantly from the southwest in the Northern Hemisphere and from the northwest in the Southern Hemisphere. One section splits around FL =winds split around FL. Minimum winds & moisture flux in Midwest & Southeast US. Converging winds along Southeast Atlantic coast . =. precipitation. June 85. BH elongates in E-W direction. Unit 5: Sixth Grade. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBqohRu2RRk. https://games.ciconline.org/windward/content/sailing.html#record. Windward Online Sailing around the world game. Whooosh. !!!!!. When you open the valve on a bicycle tube, the air rushes out.. The movement of air in a horizontal direction. What is wind?. The uneven heating of the Earth causes differences in air pressure.. What causes wind?. The Sun’s energy is more concentrated at the Equator and spread out more over the poles.. i. Winds are created by. ….. • . Heating the air, decreases pressure (warm. air rises creating a low pressure). • Cool air rushes into replace the warm air. (cooler dense air, produces high pressure). Wenting . Wang. Le Xu. Indranil Gupta. Department of Computer Science, University of Illinois, Urbana Champaign . 1. Scale up VS. Scale out. A dilemma for cloud application users: scale up or scale out? . Lucrezia Ricciardulli, Thomas Meissner and Frank Wentz. Remote Sensing Systems, Santa Rosa, CA, USA. IOVWST Meeting, April 2018 . Barcelona, Spain. Acknowledgements: This work is supported by the NASA OVWST and SMAP Science. Wind entirely perpendicular to beam. Wind entirely along-beam. Analytic Evaluation. If the horizontal wind components . u. and . v. are known, and vertical velocity is negligible, then the radial velocity . Objective. Reconcile the . conflicting evidence of the meridional westerly wind shift during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) indicated . by proxy-records from the . atmosphere . and . ocean. Approach. Compare & contrast an idealized hurricane life cycle with a real life example from the past. Understand how the angle of approach of a storm impacts regional damage. Objectives. Hurricane Structure. Wind is the movement . of air caused by an uneven heating of the Earth’s . surface.. What HEATS EARTH’S SURFACE?. Heat from the sun heats the surface of the Earth.. This heat arrives to Earth in the form of radiation.. Ryan Rykaczewski. University of South Carolina. ryk@sc.edu.
