What are the four major wind belts?

The four major wind belts are the polar easterlies, prevailing westerlies, trade winds, and the doldrums. The polar easterlies are cold winds that blow from the polar high-pressure areas towards the mid-latitudes. The prevailing westerlies are winds that blow from the west in the mid-latitudes. The trade winds are consistent easterly winds that blow towards the equator. The doldrums are areas near the equator with weak and variable winds.
