Thermal energy transferred by circulation of a liquid or gas is called
absorbed by Earth's surface.
differences in air pressure
Warm air rises at the equator, and cold air sinks at the poles.
during the night when the surface of the land cools faster than the sea
westerllies
convection
local geographic features causing temperature differences
trade winds
Local winds are produced by
absorbed by Earth's surface.
differences in air pressure
Warm air rises at the equator, and cold air sinks at the poles.

trade winds
Global winds that blow from west to east are called
absorbed by Earth's surface.
differences in air pressure
Warm air rises at the equator, and cold air sinks at the poles.

trade winds
The winds that blow from 30 degrees latitude in both hemispheres toward the equator are called
absorbed by Earth's surface.
