What are the air currents that flow near the north and south poles?
The polar easterlies (also Polar Hadley cells) are the dry, cold prevailing winds that blow from the high-pressure areas of the polar highs at the north and south poles towards low-pressure areas within the Westerlies at high latitudes.

Which global wind belt occurs between 30 and 60 degrees latitude?
Wind belts that extend from the poles to 60 degrees latitude are called polar easterlies.
What causes polar easterlies?
Polar easterlies are winds that move in near the north and south poles at 60 to 90 degrees (north or south). They are next to the prevailing westerlies. The polar easterlies are cold and windy, while the prevailing westerlies are hot and dry. The rotation of the Earth and the Sun's heat causes Polar easterlies.
