Air Pressure and Winds Global Atmospheric Circulation Upper Atmosphere - Note the forces that impact these pressures. There are patterns in atmospheric circulation and notable wind belts within our atmosphere. Draw the expected upper air wind directions around each pressure center in the northern hemisphere. Label the diagram below with the following surface pressure and wind systems. Indicate whether the pressure systems are high or low pressure Surface Pressure Systems: Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), Sub-Tropical Highs, Polar Front, Polar Highs Wind Systems: Trade Winds, Westerlies, Polar Easterlies. Draw the expected upper air wind directions around each pressure center in the southern hemisphere. Lower Atmosphere - Note the forces that impact these pressures. Draw the expected surface wind direction around each pressure center in the northern hemisphere. Draw the expected surface wind direction around each pressure center in the southern hemisphere.
