exists and is an alternate of . Wind is a horizontal flow of air from higher pressure to lower pressure the force that generates wind is called the Pressure-Gradient Force. Wind is a horizontal flow of air from higher pressure to lower pressure the force that generates wind is called the Pressure-Gradient Force.
If the Earth didn't rotate, winds would travel either north or south due to differences in temperature and pressure at different latitudes. But since the Earth does rotate, the Coriolis force deflects these winds to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. Keep Reading Below In the Northern Hemisphere, this deflection causes the wind flow around high pressure systems to go clockwise while flow around low-pressure systems travels counterclockwise.
