A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

General atmospheric circulation

General atmospheric circulation explains the large-scale movement of air over the Earth and how this movement redistributes heat from low latitudes to high latitudes. For examination purposes, you must master the pressure belts, planetary wind systems, and the three-cell model because they explain global weather patterns, rainfall belts, and climatic zones.
