Unless you mean solar wind, you are likely referring to the jet stream, which can affect air travel arrival times and the smoothness of the trip.

If there is no atmosphere on Mars how can there be winds?
There IS atmosphere on Mars. It's quite thin compared to Earth's, but it's substantial enough for winds to occur.
What are the winds high in the atmosphere'?
The jet stream.
Does the sun influence the formation of winds on the earth's surface?
To the extent that the sun warms the atmosphere, and varying temperatures within the atmosphere are the basis of winds, yes.
Which planets atmosphere has very strong winds?
Jupiter
What is the cause of winds on Mars?
because it has a dense atmosphere:)
Winds in the upper atmosphere are measured by?
Graphs or Radar
Does the planet Venus have high winds?
Yes, in the upper atmosphere high winds have been observed.
What part of the sun sends out solar winds?
Solar winds are sent out from the upper atmosphere of the sun.
Is Venus windy?
Yes! Very strong winds are in the upper atmosphere of Venus.
What is the name of the winds that push weather west to east across the us found in the upper atmosphere?
It is called the TRADE WINDS.
Is spring the best time of year for a tornado to occur?
Yes. Spring is usually the best time of year for tornadoes due to the combination of a warm lower atmosphere, a cold upper atmosphere, and strong upper level winds.
How does friction between the ground and molecules in the air affect winds near the earhts surface?
Air in the upper atmosphere speeds up.
How do jet streams differ from wind in the lower atmosphere?
JET Streams.The winds of the upper troposphere are quite different from the winds in the lower troposphere.They are stronger and blow in a different direction, mostly out of the west
In which layer of the atmosphere do mountains peak?
The top of Mount Everest exists in the upper troposphere. This is a part of the atmosphere where winds traveling at 110 km an hour can pummel mountain climbers.
What has the author E S Batten written?
E. S. Batten has written: 'Tidal oscillations in the thermosphere and their implications for upper atmosphere density models' -- subject(s): Atmospheric tides, Thermosphere, Upper Atmosphere 'Tidal winds in the lower ionosphere' -- subject(s): Atmospheric tides 'A comparison of tidal theory with lower thermospheric wind observations' -- subject(s): Thermospheric winds, Tides, Winds aloft
Why air pollutants produced by forest fires in another country can travel all the way to Singapore?
The air pollutants rise high in the atmosphere where the winds are very active. These high-speed winds in the upper atmosphere is what allows pollutants to travel and spread our through out the world. Even though the winds at ground level seem still, high in the atmosphere they're vigorous and aggressive.
Which portion of Earth's atmosphere are the trade winds in?
The Trade Winds are in the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere. The Trade Winds blow near the equator. They are so called as trade in the days of sail relied upon these winds.
