Global Air Circulation - Mindset Learn
learn.mindset.africahigh pressure exist over the Polar Regions due to differences in temperature. Insolation received by the Earth, and converted to heat, causes air to become less dense and rise in equatorial areas. The resulting low pressure allows the high-pressure subsidence air at the poles to move along the planet´s surface toward the Equator.
