â¢ Winds blow from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. â¢ Pressure belts are caused by the uneven heating of Earthâs surface by the sun. â¢ The Coriolis effect causes wind to appear to curve as it moves across Earthâs. surface. â¢ Global winds include the polar easterlies, the westerlies, and the trade winds.
The Greenhouse Effect. Energy from the Sun that makes its way to Earth can have trouble finding its way back out to space. The greenhouse effect causes some of this energy to be waylaid in the atmosphere, absorbed and released by greenhouse gases. Without the greenhouse effect, Earthâs temperature would be below freezing. It is, in part, a natural process. However, Earthâs greenhouse effect is getting stronger as we add greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. Thatâs is warming the climate of our planet.
