  - bounce off a wall, producing eddies that can cause more damage
  - force rainwater deep into any joint or crack
  - increase the ill effects of the sun's rays
  - shred the leaves, but the veins are still able to function properly
* then acts as the force which pushes the plant over or buckles the stem
  - mix and disperse the carbon dioxide
* transport the evaporated water around the planet, influencing the humidity of the air.
* travel at much greater speed than other storms.
* travels over the water, dispersing.
  - the turbine's rotor which spins the generator that makes electricity
* uproots entire plants
* usually becomes less of a problem as a baby gets older
* vary in direction and velocity, relatively constant being the north-west and the west.
* vast, worldwide source of energy.
* vector quantity, that is, has both direction and magnitude.
* very important force in shaping the Martian surface.
+ Lichen, Their life habit, Reproduction: Fungi :: Botany :: Bacteria :: Algae :: Extremophiles
  * They make small groups of algal cells surrounded by fungal filaments. These 'soridia' can be blown by wind. Some lichens just break up into fragments when they dry. Wind carries the pieces, which grow when moisture returns. Also, lichen fungi can reproduce sexually by forming fruiting bodies containing spores.
  * A 'valley' is a type of landformation. Valleys often start as a downward fold between two upward folds in the surface of the Earth. A valley is made deeper by a stream of water or a river as it flows from the high land to the lower land, and into a lake or sea. Some valleys are made by glaciers which are slow-moving rivers of ice. When a valley is made deeper or wider by water or ice, this is called erosion. Wind can also make valleys larger by erosion.
  * Wind can move land, especially in deserts. Cold wind can sometimes have a bad effect on livestock. Wind also affects animals' food stores, their hunting and the way they protect themselves.
+ Pollen, Pollination: Flowers :: Plant anatomy
  * The wind helps move pollen between plants. The pollen of some plants is very light. Wind blows it from the flowers on one plant to the flowers on another plant. The wind can move pollen a long way before the pollen hits the sticky top of a pistil.
+ Sailboat: Boats
  * A 'sailboat', 'sailing boat' or 'yacht'  is a boat that has sails. Wind blows against the sails, pushing the boat through the water. The word covers many kinds of boats, from small sailboards to large sailing ships. When the wind blows from behind, there can be used an extra sail, a spinnaker.
+ Weathering, Mechanical weathering, Wind: Chemistry
  * Wind processes are called 'aeolian'. Wind erodes the Earth's surface by removing loose, fine-grained particles, called 'deflation'.
+ Wind, In outer space, Planetary wind:
  * The 'doldrums' are in the equatorial region. It is a wind belt where air is warm, with little pressure variations. Winds are light there.
