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 Suns energy is more concentrated at the Equator and spread out more over the poles. 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 . Natalia Han. Macee Wiese. The World Is Too Much With Us. The . world is too much with us; late and soon,. Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers:. Little we see in Nature that is ours;. 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. 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. i. What causes wind? . Caused by a difference in air pressure due to. unequal heating of the atmosphere.. Winds are created by. ….. • . Heating the air, decreases pressure (warm. air rises creating a low pressure).

Lightening is like electric sparks that you can make by shuffling across a carpet before touching a metal object. Both lightning and small electric sparks are discharges of built up static electricity. . Lucrezia Ricciardulli, Thomas Meissner and Frank Wentz. Remote Sensing Systems, Santa Rosa, CA, USA.
