WesterliesThe westerlies are the winds blowing from the sub-tropical high pressure belts towards the sub polar low pressure belts.They blow from south­west to north-east in the northern hemisphere and north-west to south-east in the southern hemisphere.The westerlies of the southern hemisphere are stronger and persistent due to the vast expanse of water, while those of the northern hemisphere are irregular because of uneven relief of vast land-masses.The westerlies are best developed between 40° and 65°S latitudes. These latitudes are often called Roaring Forties, Furious Fifties, and Shrieking Sixties – dreaded terms for sailors.The poleward boundary of the westerlies is highly fluctuating. There are many seasonal and short-term fluctuations. These winds produce wet spells and variability in weather.

Trade WindsThe trade winds are those blowing from the sub-tropical high pressure areas towards the equatorial low pressure belt.Therefore, these are confined to a region between 30°N and 30°S throughout the earth’s surface.They flow as the north-eastern trades in the northern hemisphere and the south-eastern trades in the southern hemisphere.This deflection in their ideally expected north-south direction is explained on the basis of Coriolis force and Farrel’s law.Trade winds are descending and stable in areas of their origin (sub-tropical high pressure belt), and as they reach the equator, they become humid and warmer after picking up moisture on their way.The trade winds from two hemispheres meet at the equator, and due to convergence they rise and cause heavy rainfall.The eastern parts of the trade winds associated with the cool ocean currents are drier and more stable than the western parts of the ocean
