    If I got it right, this would also mean that wind shear (18.000 feet and above) is one of the factors affecting or influencing the development of high and low pressure systems? Because on the other hand, convergence or divergence winds (southeast or northeast trade wind e.g.) are winds which occur at sea level and these are the winds which also rush towards low systems and blow away from high systems...

    • @always-alicia
      @always-alicia 6 лет назад

      I explain it to my students like this: There are two locations: Surface (the air near the ground) and Aloft (the air higher up in the atmosphere). Something I’ve learned though is that a student wants a less vague definition of Aloft. In Meteorology, Aloft can mean anything so long as it’s not at the surface, so it’s hard to commit to a more firm definition.
      For the purpose of what he’s talking about in this video, Aloft represents the Tropopause, which is where the jet stream is present. The height of the tropopause varies, but I usually say it’s around 11 Kilometers, or about 36,000 feet... about the height that planes would fly.

    • @isaacneterosmiddlefinger186
      @isaacneterosmiddlefinger186 7 лет назад

      Coriolis force in the northern hemisphere makes the winds turn right of the lowering pressure levels -- otherwise we'd have winds constantly from the south to north (look at a 500 mb height contour map to see what I mean). The "turned" winds are called geostrophic winds... but it gets more complicated than that when you start to consider vorticity, ageostrophic motions, jet streaks, cold pooling aloft... etc.
