What does the pressure gradient force do?
Think about how air moves based on pressure differences.
Define isobars.
Consider a map with lines indicating pressure.
What is the primary force that causes air movement?
Think about how air flows in the atmosphere.
True or False: The Coriolis force is nonexistent at the equator.
Consider how Earth's rotation affects wind at different latitudes.
Evaluate how the interaction of the pressure gradient force and the Coriolis effect influences storm patterns.
Consider how these forces interact to create winds in both hemispheres.
Analyze a weather map with isobars and describe the expected wind patterns.
