Causes of Winds.

Winds are produced by a disturb
ance of the equilibrium in some part
of the atmosphere; a disturbance al
ways resulting from a difference In
temperature between adjacent sec
tons. Thus, if the temperature of a
certain extent of ground becomes high
err, the air in contact with it becomes
heated, 1t expands and goes towards
the colder or higher regions of the
atmosphere; whence it flows, produc-
ing winds which blow from hot to cold
countries. But at the same time the
equilibrium is destroyed at the sur
face of the earth, for the pressure on
the colder adjacent parts is greater
than on that which has been heated,
and hence a current will be produced
with a velocity dependent on the diff
ference between these p%ressures thus
two distinct winds will be produced
an upper n setting outwards from
the heated region, and a lower one set
ting inwards towards it.
