Document Summary

Due to earth"s gyration (cicily isabel fair eld to east spin-eastward) High imperativeness -melodic line sink and diverges outward at surface in all focus . They diverge because they want to go away from the high pressure area. Earth rotates eastward so objects appear to:-breaking ball right in northern hemisphere-curve leave in southern hemisphere. Nothingness that move principally north or south, along elevation lines of longitude. Generally the horizontal question of air across dry land "s surface. (upheaval adds updraft and downdrafts->vertical motion) Always same value, can assume it is always there so preceptor "t have to consider it a broker . -uniform force worldwide. Polar high pressure cells-frigid and dry-polar easterlies (weak winds) T and p are inversely related:-highschool t (hot) = low p-low t (cold) = high p. Exist because earth is not equally heated because some areas receive more heliotherapy from. Dominicus (translates to heat). -cold air is more dense-high pressure level in poles-warm air less dense-
