Question

What happens to global winds at the Equator?

Answer 1

Warm air rises up at the equator and moves toward the poles. Global winds do not move directly from north to south or south to north because the Earth spins.

Answer 2

Answer:

A low-pressure will start forming at the surface of a region of clouds that begins at altitude. The air will eventually stop rising, and then it will begin to spread north and south to the Earth's poles.

Approximately 2000 miles from the equator, the air falls back to Earth's surface, blowing towards the pole and back to the equator.
