A. The subtropical jet stream lies between the westerlies and polar easterlies; this statement is true. B. The polar jet stream typically flows to the east, while the subtropical jet stream flows towards the west.
The main global wind systems are the Trade Winds, Westerlies, and Polar Easterlies. Trade Winds blow from the subtropical high pressure belts towards the equator, Westerlies blow from the mid-latitudes towards the poles, and Polar Easterlies blow from the polar highs towards the mid-latitudes. These wind systems are influenced by the Earth's rotation (Coriolis effect) and the temperature differences between different regions.
Polar easterlies occur at latitudes between 60 and 90 degrees north and south. Westerlies occur at latitudes between 30 and 60 degrees north and south. Trade winds occur at latitudes between 0 and 30 degrees north and south.
Polar easterlies occur at latitudes between 60 and 90 degrees, westerlies occur at latitudes between 30 and 60 degrees, and trade winds occur at latitudes between 0 and 30 degrees in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
The 5 major global wind belts are the polar easterlies, prevailing westerlies, tropical easterlies, prevailing westerlies, and the polar easterlies.
The Westerlies occur between 30 and 60 degrees latitude in both hemispheres. These are prevailing winds that flow from the west to the east. They are responsible for weather patterns and are important for air travel routes.

Polar easterlies occur at latitudes between 60 and 90 degrees, westerlies occur at latitudes between 30 and 60 degrees, and trade winds occur at latitudes between 0 and 30 degrees in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
The winds that blow between 30 and 60 degrees latitude are called westerlies. These prevailing winds move from west to east in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
The polar jet stream is generally stronger than the subtropical jet stream. The subtropical jet stream lies between the westerlies and trade winds.
There are generally five main types of winds: trade winds, westerlies, polar easterlies, tropical easterlies, and jet streams. These wind patterns are influenced by the Earth's rotation and temperature differences between regions.

The Earth's rotation turns the polar high pressure systems westward as they move from the poles (westerlies), and the subtropical high pressure systems eastward as they move toward the equator (tropical easterlies).
Yes, there are polar westerlies. They are prevailing winds that blow from west to east in the middle latitudes of both hemispheres, between 60 and 50 degrees latitude. These winds are created by the Ferrel cell circulation in the Earth's atmosphere.
The Westerlies occur between 30 and 60 degrees latitude in both hemispheres. These are prevailing winds that flow from the west to the east. They are responsible for weather patterns and are important for air travel routes.
No, air that flows northward from the horse latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere produces the westerlies, which are prevailing winds from the west towards the east. The westerlies are located in the mid-latitudes between 30 and 60 degrees latitude.
