Thermal Wind

Thermal Wind

A horizontal heat range gradient exists although moving North-South combined a meridian because curvature of the Earth allows with regard to more solar heating in the equator than in the poles. This creates a new westerly geostrophic wind pattern to form in the mid-latitudes. Arctic the wind is a vertical shear inside the geostrophic the wind the consequence of horizontal heat range gradient. The actual label is usually a misnomer, it isn’t a new the wind but instead a new the wind shear.
