GEO 211 1st Edition Lecture 22 Outline of Last Lecture I Air Pressure continued A Horizontal Pressure Variations influenced by Air temperature Air moisture Air flow movement B Forces that influence wind Pressure gradient force Coriolis force Friction force C Pressure Gradient Force D Coriolis force a How Coriolis force deflects wind E Friction force F Upper level winds Outline of Current Lecture II Air pressure continued A How winds blow on closed isobars B Northern hemisphere wind blow 1 Into low pressure counter clockwise in spiral 2 From high pressure center clockwise out spiral C Southern hemisphere 1 Into low pressure center clockwise in spiral 2 From high pressure center counter clockwise out spiral D With cyclones E With anticyclones III Chapter 10 wind global systems A Global circulation of winds and pressure systems at the surface figure 10 2 Current Lecture These notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor s lecture GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes not as a substitute II Air pressure continued A How winds blow on closed isobars Cyclone has low pressure center Anticyclone has high pressure center B Northern hemisphere wind blow 1 Into low pressure counter clockwise in spiral 2 From high pressure center clockwise out spiral C Southern hemisphere 1 Into low pressure center clockwise in spiral 2 From high pressure center counter clockwise out spiral D With cyclones air converge at the low pressure center rises and diverge alof E With anticyclones air converge alof sink to high pressure center at the surface and diverge III Chapter 10 wind global systems A Global circulation of winds and pressure systems at the surface figure 10 2
