The Earth's rotation turns the polar high pressure systems westward as they move from the poles (westerlies), and the subtropical high pressure systems eastward as they move toward the equator (tropical easterlies).
The equators warm air, and the polar cold air.
From west to east
Causes air to move from poles toward the equator
Temperature differences Earth's tilt
Earths Rotation The Coriolis effect
