What directions do westerlies blow?
Prevailing winds are also known as wind belts and can simply be described as winds that blow mainly from one direction.While local winds can vary in all directions, large scale weather patterns and wind patterns are part of the global wind belts. Multiple diagrams for global wind belts can be found using a simple search on the internet. Large-scale high and low pressure zones are formed and since winds blow from high to low, large circulation patterns of prevailing winds are formed. These winds are deflected in an East or West direction based on the Coriolis Effect. More information on the Coriolis Effect can be found in the links below. In England the prevailing wind is SW.
What is the small air circulation patterns that move short distances and can blow from any direction?
The small air circulation patterns that move short distances and can blow from any direction are called local winds. These winds are typically influenced by local topography, temperature differences, and changes in pressure. Examples include sea breezes, mountain breezes, and valley breezes.
What is the difference between winds and local winds?
The combination of convection cells found at every 30 degrees of latitude and the Coriolis effect produces patterns of air circulation called global winds. Local winds blow from any direction and move short distances. Local winds are caused by unequal heating within a small area.
How does the ocean circulation and atmospheric circulation patterns change during el nino event?
The Walker Circulation weakens, which causes the Trade Winds to weaken or even reverse. This causes warm water from the Western Pacific to be moved further east all the way to South America. As a result, cold, nutrient-rich water is unable to be upwelled off the coast.

What are Northeast Trade Winds?
Trade winds blow from the Northeast in the Northern Hemisphere. Trade winds are the prevailing winds of the tropics and a major component of circulation in the atmosphere.
What is the difference between global and local winds?
Global Winds are the current speed of the jet stream, while Local Winds is the current wind speed for a certain location.
