The term planetary winds can be defined in different ways:
--Planetary wind can refer to any wind system of the earth's atmosphere which owes its existence and direction to solar radiation and to the rotation of the earth.
--Planetary wind can refer to major winds that affect great portions of the earth rather than just local winds.
--Planetary wind can also refer to gas loss from a planet into space, when the hydrodynamic wind in the upper portion of the planet's atmosphere allows light chemical elements to move up to the exobase. Those gases can then achieve escape velocity.
Local winds, such as sea breezes and mountain winds, are not planetary winds. These winds are driven by local temperature and pressure differences rather than the global atmospheric circulation patterns that produce the planetary winds.

Trade winds are strong winds that blow towards the equator from northeast or south east direction. They are planetary winds that keep blowing from subtropical high pressure zone to equilateral low pressure zones
Planetary winds are any winds that occur because of solar radiation. They are in direct correlation to the rotation of the earth. Planetary winds do not blow directly north or south.
Local winds, such as sea breezes and mountain winds, are not planetary winds. These winds are driven by local temperature and pressure differences rather than the global atmospheric circulation patterns that produce the planetary winds.
