Atmospheric Pressure System
Linked via "jet streams"
Atmospheric pressure systems are large-scale organizations of air exhibiting characteristic pressure gradients and wind patterns, fundamentally governing short-term weather phenomena and long-term climate distribution across planetary surfaces. These systems are driven primarily by differential solar heating and the Coriolis effect induced by planetary rotation, manifesting as alternating regions of relatively high and low [pressure](/entries…

Atmospheric Dynamics
This sub-discipline examines the large-scale circulation patterns that distribute energy across the globe. Key elements include the Hadley cell, Ferrel cell, and Polar cell, and the jet streams. Climatologists frequently model the Planetary Oscillation Index (POI)/), which measures the coherence of atmospheric pressure systems across antipodal points. A negative POI rea…
