Air density is subject to change by temperature and altitude. When air experiences a large change in either temperature or altitude, it expands or contracts, creating motion in the air. When high pressure and low pressure systems meet, winds can grow exponentially, as warm air rises over cooler air.

What is convergent wind?
Convergent winds are winds that move toward something, such as a hurricane or tornado.
How many major winds are there?
There are 3 global winds per hemisphere, so 6 in total. The 3 global winds are the: easterlies, which move from east to west. westerlies, which move from west to east. and the trade winds, which also moves from the east to west.
Do winds move at different speeds?
Yes.
How does air move from place to place?
winds
How is the formation of global winds and small scale winds similar?
Winds are caused by differences in air pressure, winds move from high to low pressure. Has something to do with the coriolis effect.:]
Do clouds ever move east to west?
yes if the winds are strong enough like hurricane force winds
How many majors are there?
There are 3 global winds per hemisphere, so 6 in total. The 3 global winds are the: easterlies, which move from east to west. westerlies, which move from west to east. and the trade winds, which also moves from the east to west.
What causes this winds to move in sideward way?
this air causes to move that way because the earth rotation is side ward so the winds are on side ward movement too.
What winds move the ocean current?
it causes current waves.
Where do global winds move warm air?
Toward The Poles
