What are global winds affected by?
Global winds are *e*ffected by differences in air pressure caused by uneven solar heating of the atmosphere.
What causes air to circulate in global wind systems?
when air is cooled, it becomes more dense,and its pressure increases. these differences in air pressure ,in turn ,cause air to circulate in global wind. jk
How is the formation of global winds and small scale winds similar?
Winds are caused by differences in air pressure, winds move from high to low pressure. Has something to do with the coriolis effect.:]
What causes global winds to appear to turn instead of blow straight across the earth's surface?
The warmth of the Sun creates temperature differences that change the direction of the wind.
Together the Coriolis Effect and differences in pressure and temperature relate to?
relate to the development of storms.relate to global patterns of air movement.relate to local patterns of air movement.

What causes global pressure belts?
Uneven heating of the sun.
What is global wind system?
The Global Wind System is caused by the unequal heating of the Earth's surface.
What causes global convection currents to form?
Differences in temperature on earth
What causes air to circulate in global wind systems?

How does unequal heating affect global wind pattern?
hot air causes a low pressure system, cold air then rushes towards this low pressure system to equalise the earths atmosphere. the unequal heating causes unequal pressure systems and air moves to and from those pressure systems.
What process produces rising air due to unequal heating of earth's surface?
The process is called convection. The Earth's surface gets heated by the sun through a process called radiation. O.K. differences in air pressure are generally caused by the unequal heating of the earth. The equator recieves more direct solar energy than other latitudes, so air at the equator is warmer and less dense that the surrounding air. Warm , less dense air rises and creates an area of low pressure.
