Are Doldrums Regions Of light Or Absent Winds Near The Equator?
In the days of sail, ships could find themselves becalmed in the doldrums. The doldrums is a low-pressure area around the equator where the prevailing winds are calm.
Choose the most likely location of these conditions constant low pressure area with warm temperatures?
equator
What is equatorial low pressure?
in equitorial low pressure belt , low pressure is due to 1) intense heating 2) rate of rotation of earth is max. at equator . this results in max centrifugal force at equator which pushes the air away from the surface and causes low pressure condition.
Why is the equator a low air pressure area?
The equator is an intensely heated throughout the year . Due to the intense heating the air in this region becomes warm and light and it rises above creating a partial vacuum .(As you know vacuum leads to decrease in air pressure) As a result a region of permanent low pressure is created called the equatorial low pressure belt.
What is a zone of low pressure that circles the globe?
equator
After high pressure areas are created around the poles cold polar air flows toward?
The low pressure area at the Equator.
An area of constant low pressure is located near the?
equator
Constant low pressure area with warm temperatures?
Westerlies

Choose the most likely location of these conditions constant low pressure area with warm temperatures?
equator
What is high pressure area and low pressure area?
the orbit of the moon around planet earth
What is an area called where the air pressure is lower than the area around it?
a-plus a low pressure system
Do areas of low pressure spin around regions of high pressure?
No. The paths of low pressure systems can be affected by high pressure areas, but they do not revolve around them. A low pressure area rotates about its own center of lowest pressure.
