Global winds are divided by latitude into three belts.?
True.
Which imaginary lines are based on the equator?
The lines are latitude,heat equator and pressure belts.
At What Latitude or Longitude are the Pressure Belts?
The pressure belts are located at different latitudes rather than longitudes. Some of the main pressure belts include the equatorial low-pressure belt near the equator, the subtropical high-pressure belts around 30 degrees north and south latitudes, and the subpolar low-pressure belts near the poles.
What are pressure belts wind?
There are many wind belts. Doldrums receive the most heat from the Sun. Trade winds extends past the doldrums 30 degrees. Horse latitudes is a wind belt that forms between 30 degrees north and south latitude.
What latitude belts do cold currents originate?
Cold currents typically originate in high latitude belts near the poles, such as the polar regions or around the 60° latitude lines. These currents flow from these colder regions towards the equator, influencing the temperature and climate of coastal areas along their path.

True.
Earth's low-latitude deserts and steppes coincide with what pressure belts?
Subtropical Highs

Wind belts between 30 and 60 latitude in both the northern and southern hemospheres are called?
They're refereed to as "Jet Streams"
What are the names of the three global belts?
Polar Easterlies: From 60-90 degrees latitude.Prevailing Westerlies: From 30-60 degrees latitude (aka Westerlies).Tropical Easterlies: From 0-30 degrees latitude (aka Trade Winds).The three major global wind belts are the trade winds, the polar easterlies, and the prevailing westerliesHope this helped~Zadr
What are stable belts of high pressure?
these are areas of sinking air and average in positions around 30 degrees N latitude and 30 degrees S latitude. This the subtropical high pressure belt. Sometimes called the horse latitudes.
Which global wind belt occurs between 30 and 60 degrees latitude?
The Westerlies occur between 30 and 60 degrees latitude in both hemispheres. These are prevailing winds that flow from the west to the east. They are responsible for weather patterns and are important for air travel routes.
What latitude belts do cold currents originate?
Cold currents typically originate in high latitude belts near the poles, such as the polar regions or around the 60° latitude lines. These currents flow from these colder regions towards the equator, influencing the temperature and climate of coastal areas along their path.
Name 3 major global wind belts?
Polar Easterlies: From 60-90 degrees latitude.Prevailing Westerlies: From 30-60 degrees latitude (aka Westerlies).Tropical Easterlies: From 0-30 degrees latitude (aka Trade Winds).
Lines of latitude locate places in which derations?
Lat rhymes with fat. Lines of latitude go around the world like belts, and locate positions to the north and south.Longitude lines are long. Unlike latitude lines longitude lines are all the same length as they run from pole to pole. The locate positions to the east and west.
