Russian or German winds, depending upon which way they are blowing away from the Poles.
Catabatic winds are those that flow down slope from a cold region.
The cold air on the Antarctic Plateau for example, is about 3000 m high, and the air is hence dry (= heavier than moist air), very cold, and therefore dense. This flows towards the Antarctic coast in a continuous flow.
I seem to remember that at the French Adelie Station, the wind flow averaged a few tens of km per hour all the time. When they rebuilt the station after a fire, they built it mainly underground to escape this demoralizing effect.
Mawson had a few words on the subject also.
The NZ and the US bases at McMurdo Sound, are sufficiently remote from the mountains to escape this wind.
What else can I help you with?
How are global winds named?
Global winds are named based on the direction from which they blow and the region in which they are located. For example, the polar easterlies blow from the east near the poles, the westerlies blow from the west in mid-latitudes, and the trade winds blow from the northeast in the Northern Hemisphere and from the southeast in the Southern Hemisphere.
What is the difference between trade winds and westerlies?
Trade winds blow from east to west while the westerlies blow from west to east. Trade winds blow near the equator whereas the westerlies blow in the middle latitudes.
What winds are part of large patterns of circulation that come from the same direction?
Trade winds and westerlies are examples of large-scale consistent wind patterns that blow from the same direction over large areas. Trade winds blow from east to west near the equator, while westerlies blow from west to east in the mid-latitudes.
Global wind that blow west to east are called?
They're called westerlies. Good luck with your paper!
The trade winds and westerlies originate here?
The trade winds originate from the subtropical high-pressure systems near the equator, while the westerlies originate from the mid-latitude areas around 30-60 degrees latitude. The trade winds blow from east to west, while the westerlies blow from west to east.
Where do winds near the equator blow from mainly?
Easterlies is not the answer . The answer is trade winds .
How do you label global winds on the earth?
Global winds on Earth are typically labeled based on the direction from which they originate. For example, trade winds blow from east to west, westerlies blow from west to east, and polar easterlies blow from east to west near the poles. These wind patterns are important for understanding global atmospheric circulation.
How are global winds named?
Global winds are named based on the direction from which they blow and the region in which they are located. For example, the polar easterlies blow from the east near the poles, the westerlies blow from the west in mid-latitudes, and the trade winds blow from the northeast in the Northern Hemisphere and from the southeast in the Southern Hemisphere.
What is the difference between trade winds and westerlies?
Trade winds blow from east to west while the westerlies blow from west to east. Trade winds blow near the equator whereas the westerlies blow in the middle latitudes.
What winds blow away from 30 degree latitudes?
Trade winds
What causes winds to blow?
Well, it has to do with high pressure, low pressure, horse latitudes and doldrums.
What winds blow diagonally from east to west?
This would in fact be the Polar Easterlies. Winds from the north blow south, but are pushed from east to west by the Westerlies which forces the wind into a diagonal direction.
What winds are part of large patterns of circulation that come from the same direction?
Trade winds and westerlies are examples of large-scale consistent wind patterns that blow from the same direction over large areas. Trade winds blow from east to west near the equator, while westerlies blow from west to east in the mid-latitudes.
Prevailing winds that blow from east to west?
The prevailing winds that blow from east to west are known as the westerlies. These winds occur in the middle latitudes of both hemispheres, between 30 and 60 degrees latitude. The westerlies play a significant role in shaping the weather patterns in these regions.
Global wind that blow west to east are called?
They're called westerlies. Good luck with your paper!
What are the different types of globle winds?
the different types of global winds are the ne trade winds,se trade winds,prevailing easterlies, prevailing westerlies,polar westerlies,jet stream,horse latitudes,and doldrums.
What are trading winds?
You mean trade winds. And they are winds that normally blow in the same direction on a regular basis.
