Wind exists because of two main forces: The rotation of the earth, and the heat and light from the sun.
The rotation of the earth causes wind because the natural tendency of air molecules is to stay still. The earth essentially is moving, and the air is essentially staying where it is, creating the illusion that the air is moving. This is called "the Coriolis Effect". The Coriolis effect is what causes the constant unchanging winds used by sailing ships.
The heat from the sun is responsible for almost all of earth's weather, except for those mentioned above. The sun's heat causes the air molecules to become excited, and lack of heat makes the molecules stand still. Excited molecules expand, and create High Pressure. Still molecules contract and create low pressure. When high pressure air moves in to fill in the slight vacuum created by low pressure air, it creates wind.
In short
HOT AIR = HIGH PRESSURE
COLD AIR = LOW PRESSURE
HIGH PRESSURE TRIES TO GET TO WHERE THERE IS LESS PRESSURE.

How do wind sensors work?
An anemometer is a device that provides information on wind speed and wind pressure. Sonic anemometers measure the wind speed and pressure of sonic pulses that exist between pairs of transducers.
What istrument measures wind Direction?
The wind direction is measured with wind vanes or wind socks. The wind speed is measured with an anemometer.

What is the Difference between solar wind and earth wind?
the differenc between solor wind and earth wind is that earth wind comes from the earth its self, and solor wind comes the sun which causes the planets to space out from each other.
How can updrafts and downdrafts exist in the same thundercloud?

What are the wind condition for a large wave to exist?
Well it depends. If its a big wave, there lots of wind. If its a small wave, there's probably little wind. It has to be strong enough. Surprisingly, waves comes from wind.
Does skull kid exist in wind waker using cheats?
Nope :P
How do you know wind exist?
Wind always exists no matter if you feel it or not Hope this helps =) Edit: some might say "by it's effects"
Where are heavy wind tunnels in the US?
NASA has a wind tunnel available in Texas, others do exist in the USA but have undisclosed locations as heavy wind tunnels are often used to test aircraft.
How is wind power related to chemistry?
Very probable a significant relation doesn't exist.
Which is stronger wind or earth?
No element is stronger than another. Each needs the others to exist.
Why do ideal conditions for wind action exist in many parts of southern Pakistan?
Beacause it is desrted
What would happen if the sand dunes did not have wind?
The whole beach or whatever it was on would be totally flat. Wind is what shapes sand dunes. Without it, they just would not exist.
How is Gone With the Wind rated?
The rating system didn't exist when it was released in 1939, but it was rated 'G' in 1971.
Does skull kid exist in wind waker?
Unfortunately, no. Skull kid in windwaker would be adorable, though.
