• day-to-day condition of the earth's atmosphere

  weather
• the average weather condition of a large region

  Climate
• Trade winds, know as

  westerlies and easterlies
• Trade winds, know as westerlies and easterlies are called

  Global wind System
• Trade winds are those that blow from the northeast or the southeat toward the

  equator
• winds coming from the north and south latitudes and moving eastward toward the poles

  prevailing westerlies
• Prevailing westerlies are winds forming from the

  north and south latitudes
• prevailing westerlies are winds coming from the north and south latitude moving

  eastwards
• prevailing westerlies are winds coming from the north and south latitudes and moving eastward toward the

  poles
• The earth rotates from

  east to west direction
• As winds move they are deflected to the

  Right in northern hemisphere and left in southern hemisphere
• As winds move they are deflected to the Right in northern hemisphere and left in southern hemisphere. This is called as the

  Coriolis effect
• Doldrums and Horse Latitude are found between

  The wind belts
• is the area around the Earth centered slightly north of the equator between the two belts of trade winds

  doldrums
• It is formed from the rising warm air over the equator

  doldrums
• can get trapped on doldrums for long periods of time because there is not enough wind

  Wind-blown ships
• winds found north and south of the trade winds

  Horse latitudes
• Horse latitudes are described as

  changeable winds
• winds that blow from one direction more often than other winds

  prevailing winds
• Prevailing winds are the:

  monsoon winds and the trade winds.
• Northeast Monsoon or

  Hanging Amihan
• This wind system prevails.

  Northeast Monsoon or Hanging Amihan
• Northeast Monsoon or Hanging Amihan(months)

  November to February
• If it is winter in the ________________, the wind over mainland ________ is cold compared to the wind in the Philippines

  Northern Hemisphere, China
• Since wind moves from a high-pressure area to a low-pressure area, the cold wind over China moves ____________ across ______

  eastward, japan
• Since wind moves from a high-pressure area to a low-pressure area, the cold wind over China moves eastward across Japan and reaches the Philippines from a __________ direction.

  northeasterly
• . Before it reaches the Philippines, it passes by the Pacific Ocean to gather a great amount of ________.

  Moisture
• Southwest Monsoon or

  Hanging Habagat
• Southwest Monsoon or Hanging Habagat (months)

  July to September
• this prevailing wind blows.

  Southwest Monsoon or Hanging Habagat
• If it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere, what does Northern Hemisphere experience?

  summer
• Thus, the wind over the Southern Hemisphere (Australia) moves toward the _______.

  north
• the wind blowing toward the Philippines during the rest of year when the monsoons are weak.

  trade winds
• This wind is coming from the east.

  Trade winds
• Another factor that affects the climate of a place is the amount of ________ it receives.

  rainfall
