Wind and Air Pressure ReviewVersión en línea Wind and pressure refresher por Ryan Chen 1 Slide 1: What is air pressure? Air pressure is the weight of air pressing down on everything. A barometer measures this atmospheric pressure. 2 Slide 2: Barometer and pressure A barometer indicates changes in barometric pressure. Rising pressure often means clear skies; falling pressure can signal storms. 3 Slide 3: What causes wind? Wind results from unequal heating of Earth’s surface, creating areas of high and low pressure that air moves between. 4 Slide 4: Convection currents Convection currents are circulating flows of air or water due to temperature differences, driving wind patterns. 5 Slide 5: Global wind basics Global winds form between the poles and the equator, shaping climate and weather across the planet. 6 Slide 6: Major wind systems Trade Winds blow toward the equator and turn west. They aided early trading routes. 7 Slide 7: More wind systems Easterlies flow from east to west near the poles; Westerlies move from west to east, influencing U.S. weather. 8 Slide 8: Jet Stream & instruments The Jet Stream is a fast-moving air current circling Earth, affecting flights and weather. An anemometer measures wind speed. 9 Slide 9: Atmosphere layers The Troposphere houses most weather. The Stratosphere contains the ozone layer. CFCs harm ozone. 10 Slide 10: Summary questions Key terms to locate on a map: Equator, Easterlies, Westerlies, Trade Winds, Horse Latitudes, Doldrums. Main wind cause: unequal heating of Earth’s surface.

Slide 1: What is air pressure?

Air pressure is the weight of air pressing down on everything. A barometer measures this atmospheric pressure.

Slide 2: Barometer and pressure

A barometer indicates changes in barometric pressure. Rising pressure often means clear skies; falling pressure can signal storms.

Slide 3: What causes wind?

Wind results from unequal heating of Earth’s surface, creating areas of high and low pressure that air moves between.

Slide 4: Convection currents

Convection currents are circulating flows of air or water due to temperature differences, driving wind patterns.

Slide 5: Global wind basics

Global winds form between the poles and the equator, shaping climate and weather across the planet.

Slide 6: Major wind systems

Trade Winds blow toward the equator and turn west. They aided early trading routes.

Slide 7: More wind systems

Easterlies flow from east to west near the poles; Westerlies move from west to east, influencing U.S. weather.

Slide 8: Jet Stream & instruments

The Jet Stream is a fast-moving air current circling Earth, affecting flights and weather. An anemometer measures wind speed.

Slide 9: Atmosphere layers

The Troposphere houses most weather. The Stratosphere contains the ozone layer. CFCs harm ozone.

Slide 10: Summary questions

Key terms to locate on a map: Equator, Easterlies, Westerlies, Trade Winds, Horse Latitudes, Doldrums.
Main wind cause: unequal heating of Earth’s surface.
