What gives rise to pressure belts?
Answers
Answer:
On the earth's surface, there are seven pressure belts. They are the Equatorial Low, the two Subtropical highs, the two Subpolar lows, and the two Polar highs. ... Warm air being light, the air at the Equator rises, creating low pressure. At the poles the cold heavy air causes high pressure to be created/formed.
Answer:
Temperature differences give rise to the Pressure belt.
Explanation:
There are seven pressure belts on the surface of the world. These are the two Subtropical highs, the two Subpolar lows, the two Polar highs, and the Equatorial Low. The others create matching pairs in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, with the exception of the Equatorial low.
A pressure belt is a section of the ground where high-pressure cells or low-pressure cells predominate. Belts of high or low air pressure define the horizontal air pressure distribution throughout latitudes.
The position of all pressure belts, with the exception of the polar high, changes during a year as a result of the earth's revolution around the sun. Without this movement, the global pressure belts would have been immobile and permanent at their locations.
