question 2 / 7
which global wind brings warmer air temperatures and a lot of precipitation?
a. polar easterlies
b. prevailing westerlies
c. trade winds
Brief Explanations
Polar easterlies carry cold, dry air from polar regions. Prevailing westerlies bring mild, variable moisture but not consistently warm, heavy precipitation. Trade winds originate from subtropical high-pressure zones, pick up warm, moist air over tropical oceans, and release large amounts of precipitation when they reach land or rise over terrain.
