effect‚ combines with the heat imbalance founded on Earth to create distinct global wind systems that transport colder air to warmer areas and warmer air to colder areas. The end result is the balancing of heat energy on Earth. Jet Streams: Earth’s weather is strongly influenced by atmospheric conditioned and events that occur at the boundaries between wind zones. On either side of these imaginary boundaries‚ both surface and upper-level air differs greatly in temperature and pressure. Remember that
