Are winds caused by differences in air pressure?
Yes, winds are caused by differences in air pressure. Air flows from high pressure areas to low pressure areas, creating wind. The greater the difference in pressure, the stronger the winds will be.
How are global winds and local winds similar?
They both have covection currents and effect the weather
Do the winds near the equator blow mainly from the east to the south?
Winds near the equator blow mainly from the east to the west in a pattern known as the trade winds. These winds are caused by the rotation of the Earth and the heating of the air near the equator.
How do hurricane winds spiral in the northern hemisphere?
In the northern hemisphere, hurricane winds spiral counterclockwise due to the Coriolis effect, which is caused by the Earth's rotation.
What is the wind damage scale used to assess the severity of damage caused by strong winds?
The wind damage scale used to assess the severity of damage caused by strong winds is called the Enhanced Fujita Scale (EF Scale).
Are dunes caused by winds?
Yes sand dunes are caused by winds
What are winds a result of?
high winds are normally caused by the unequal heating of the earths surface.
What are the winds caused by?
we nnee this dor science
What causes the most damage associated with tornadoes?
Most of the damage caused by tornadoes is the result of extremely powerful winds.
What high altitude winds caused by temperatures differences between air masses?
global winds
The weather pattern caused when trade winds return to the pacific?
the weather pattern caused when trade winds do not blow across the Pacific and the surface temperature of the ocean increases
Weathering caused by?
winds,temperature,frost,water
What caused the Cyclone in Yasi?
too much winds!
How is the formation of global winds and small scale winds similar?
Winds are caused by differences in air pressure, winds move from high to low pressure. Has something to do with the coriolis effect.:]
Are winds caused by differences in air pressure?
Yes, winds are caused by differences in air pressure. Air flows from high pressure areas to low pressure areas, creating wind. The greater the difference in pressure, the stronger the winds will be.
What are 2 different types of wind?
Local winds, such as sea breezes and land breezes, are caused by temperature differences between land and water. Global winds, such as the trade winds and westerlies, are caused by the Earth's rotation and the unequal heating of the Earth's surface.
What are surface currents caused by?
prevailing winds
