The pressure gradient force (Pgf) is a force that tries to equalize pressure differences. This is the force that causes high pressure to push air toward low pressure. Thus air would flow from high to low pressure if the pressure gradient force was the only force acting on it. How the coriolis force works on a rotating disk. However, because of the earth's rotation, there is second force, the Coriolis force that affects the direction of wind flow.
Pressure Gradient Forces. Wind ultimately comes from temperature differences because, as we learned in another lesson, temperature differences lead to air pressure differences, and air pressure creates convection currents, which, as we just learned, create wind. Let's back up and see how this works.
