Answer:

Direction of movement

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A wind is named as related to the region it flows and base on the function of the flow, as the Coriolis forces cause the winds in the north to deflected in the left and to the right in the southern hemisphere.
  • The directional flow of the wind thus becomes a very important factor. Based on their pressure gradient sand the flow velocity of the winds that originates from the equatorial belts.
  • Measured by the wind vanes. The winds that move to the tropics are called the easterlies and the westerlies that flow to the western direction, similarly various wind are named after the monsoon seasons in the northern and the southern hemisphere.
  • Similar winds the jet steams are called for the winds of the middle latitudes and these make roaring sounds like the jet.
