Do currents of cold sinking air produce regions of higher pressure or lower pressure at the earths surface?
Sinking air would add air to the surface, raising the pressure.
Earths surface winds blow from regions of higher what?
Air pressure toward regions of lower air pressure
What happens to air pressure as you move away from earths surface?

How did diamonds arrive on the earths surface?
Diamonds are formed deep within the earth's mantle, under enormous pressure and extreme, high heat. Then, volcanic pipes erupt the diamonds to the earth's surface.
