Which global wind is indicated here doldrums horse latitudes prevailing westerlies polar easterlies?
Horse latitudes
What is the name of the area of ocean near the Equator with calm and variable winds?
The Doldrums. The Horse Latitudes are further north..
How do you label global winds on the earth?
From the direction they come from
The equatorial doldrums are located at what latitude?
The doldrums are at the equator. They are just like the horse latitudes; they're a calm region.
What areas have winds that are weak?
There the horse latitudes and the Doldrums. The doldrums are at 0 degrees latitude (equator), where the air rises instead of having a horizontal movement (wind). The horse latitudes are at about 30 degrees N and 30 degrees S of the equator. The horse latitudes are areas where the air falls, causing very low horizontal movement, also.
What is the name of the winds between the poles and the equator?
I believe it's Doldrums, Trade Winds, Horse Latitudes, and West Easterlies
The area of calm at the equator is called?
The Doldrums are from the equator to about 10o north and south of it. The Doldrums should not be confused with the Horse Latitudes which are about 30o north and south of the equator.
Regions on the equator where surface winds are very calm are called what?
This area is called the Doldrums. Horse Latitudes are farther north.
What winds between the doldrums and horse latitudes that are warm and relatively steady in direction and speed are known as?
(trade winds) and by the way do you miss kowalczyk
What causes winds to blow?
Well, it has to do with high pressure, low pressure, horse latitudes and doldrums.
What is horse latitude?
Horse latitudes are between 30 and 35 degrees north and south. The horse latitudes are also known as the sub tropical latitudes. The pressure in the horse latitudes is called the subtropical high.
What are pressure belts wind?
There are many wind belts. Doldrums receive the most heat from the Sun. Trade winds extends past the doldrums 30 degrees. Horse latitudes is a wind belt that forms between 30 degrees north and south latitude.
