Wind is caused by differences in pressure in the atmospheric air surrounding the earth. The sun warms the earth, and its air, inconsistently. As different regions of air become warm and cool, the atmospheric pressure changes to pockets of low and high pressure. As these different pressure pockets collide, wind is produced.

What creates a wind shear?
Wind shear is when wind speed and direction are different over a short period of time. Shear can be vertical or horizontal.

What weather instrument measures wind?
The wind direction is measured with wind vanes or wind socks. The wind speed is measured with an anemometer.
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 weather condition does wind speed measure?
The wind direction is measured with wind vanes or wind socks. The wind speed is measured with an anemometer.
Where does wind resistance occur?
Wind resistance may occur anywhere where there is something i the way of the wind. Whether it may be a person, a car, or a mountain, they all resist the wind.

When the water and sand are not absorbing heat equally what is most likely to occur?
Wind will occur.
Where do streams occur?
They occur at the boundaries between the first, second, and third wind systems

Does hurricanes occur due to environmental pollution?
Hurricanes occur because of the wind current and speed of the wind, the hotter the area is the worse the hurricane becomes. So no hurricanes don't occur because of environmental pollution.
