Down: 1) downslop airflow that results when a zone of high air pressure exists on one side of a mountain range and a zone of low pressure exists on the other 3) band of high pressure, calm winds, and celar skies that exist at about 25 to 30 n and s latitudes4) zone of high atmospheric pressure at high latitudes6) the force created by the earths rotation that causes winds to be deflected to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern hemisphere9) the settling or sinking of aa surface as a result of the loss of support 10) the difference in barometric pressure that exists between adjacent zones of low and high pressure that results in airflow14) airflow that moves parallel to isobars because of the combined effect of the pressure gradient force and coriolis force16) jet stream pattern that developes when strong rossby waves exist and the polar front jet stream flows parallel to the meridians in many places17) where air converges19) daytime circulatory system along coasts where winds flow from a zone of high pressure over water to a zone of relatively low pressure over land 22) seasonal change in wind direction that occurs in subtropical locations due to the migration of the intertropical convergence zone and subtropical high pressure system23) strong upward motion of air Across: 2) mass divided by volume5) band of easterly winds at high latitiudes7) related to temperature, warmer air, less pressure8) the force that air molecules exert on a surface due to their weight. 11) related to temperature, cooler air, more pressure12) high pressure systems13) nightime circulatory system along coasts where winds from a zone of high pressure over land flow to a zone of relatively low pressure over water15) large scale convection loop in the tropical latitudes that connects the intertropical convergence zone and the subtropical high18) el nino or el nina when the normal circulatory system in the pacific is reversed resulting in unusually warm or cold water off the coast of south america20) river of air that flow at very high speeds21) measurement of pressure used to be in inches of mercury now in pounds per square inch24) strong downward motion of air 25) where air moves apart26) low pressure systems27) zone where rising air mass, air from higher tropical latitudes in both hemisphers flow toward the equatorial trough along the surface by advection, converging in this narrow band28) jet stream pattern that is tightly confined to the high latitudes and is thus circular to semicular in polar view29) primary wind system in the tropics that flows toward the intertropical convergence zone on the equitorial side of the subtropical high pressure system. these winds flow to the southwest in the northern hemisphere and to the northwest in the southern hemisphere30) midlatitude winds that generally flow from west to east31) downslope airflow that evolves when pools of cold air develop over ice caps and subsequently decend into valleys
