It expresses the movement of air particles horizontally or closer to the horizontal from one place to another, and air usually moves from areas with high atmospheric pressure to areas with low atmospheric pressure, and the movement of these particles is affected by the movement and rotation of the earth around Itself and around the sun and therefore differ in how it is formed, its speed, duration and directions as well.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>What are the types of wind?</strong></h2><ul style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> permanent wind.</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> monsoon.</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> local wind.</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> daily wind.</li></ul><hr /><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>What are permanent winds?</strong></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Permanent winds are divided into several categories:</p><ul style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> trade winds.</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Headwind/Westerly.</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Arctic wind.</li></ul><h3 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> What are the trade winds?</h3><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The trade winds were called by this name because the merchants used to benefit from them by moving the merchant ships. On the lower layers of the atmosphere, the trade winds have a moderate speed ranging between 16-24 kilometers per hour, and their direction is northeasterly in the northern hemisphere, and southeasterly in the southern hemisphere.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h3 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> What is a headwind/westerly wind?</h3><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Reverse / westerly winds blow from the high pressure areas behind the tropics to the low pressure areas at the polar circles.

The direction of the polar winds is northeasterly in the northern hemisphere and southeasterly in the southern hemisphere.
