The effect of high and low pressure on climate
5 Basic principles ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
A basic atmospheric cell system ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],but the Earth does rotate!
The Three Cell System This is the pattern of surface winds you would get in a three cell system.  Note in particular the position of high and low pressure.
The Three Cell System The first cell to examine is the  Hadley Cell . Air rises at the equator and descends approximately 30 degrees N and S of the equator.
The Three Cell System This is a basic diagram of the three cell system.  Mark on the areas of high and low pressure.
The Three Cell System
How does this cell system effect us on the earth’s surface? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
