Jet streams are fast-moving streams of air high above Earth's surface. A divergence or convergence in the jet stream above a hig

h- or low-pressure center can drive the actions of these pressure centers. If the air in the jet stream is converging or diverging faster than the air at the surface is moving out or in, the driving force of the jet stream is compensated by an increase in surface winds.
A jet stream generally diverges above a low-pressure (warm) center. However, at Earth's surface, air converges at a low-pressure center. If the divergence of the jet stream is greater than the convergence of air at the surface low-pressure center below it, what will happen to the surface winds?

Answer:

The surface wind will most likely get stronger.

Explanation:

The magnitude of surface wind is dependent on several factors such as the pressure gradient, centrifugal acceleration, primary and secondary winds. The movement of jet streams above the surface of the Earth influences the factors that affect the magnitude of the surface wind. An increase in the jet stream driving forces makes the surface wind more stronger.

Why are winter days colder than summer days? The sun is up for less time in the winter. The sun is farther away in the winter. T
Alex17521 [72]

Many people believe that the temperature becomes lower in winters and higher in summers because the Earth is closer to the sun in summer and farther from the sun in winter. In fact, the Earth is farthest from the sun in July and is closest to the sun in January. The main reason behind these temperature changes in different seasons is because the earth's axis is tilted. It is all about the tilt of the Earth's axis.

During the process of subduction, the cooling process increases the of the crust.
Elden [556K]

Subduction is a specific type of plate interaction. The process occurs when one lithospheric plate meets another—that is, in convergent zones—and the denser plate sinks down into the mantle.

During the process of subduction, the cooling process increases the density of the crust.
