TYPES OF WINDS - DEFINITION
The various types of winds are:
(1) Permanent or Planetary winds
(2) Periodic winds
(3) Local winds
(4) Cyclones and Anticyclones
LOCAL WINDS - DEFINITION
The local winds are truly local. They occur over a much smaller land scale and are related to the topographical features of that particular place. They blow for a short period and are caused due to the particular shape of the land or nearness to a body of water that generates a specific movement of air.
The examples of local winds in India: Kalbaisakhi (West Bengal), Loo (North India).
PLANETARY WINDS - DEFINITION
Planetary winds, prevailing winds or permanent winds are those which blow continuously in the same belt all through the year. They blow from high pressure belt to low pressure belts. There are three main types of planetary winds - the trade winds, the westerlies and the easterlies. These winds are named according to the direction from which they blow.
