Match the following about winds

• trade winds

• the apparent deflection of moving objects (such as air or water) on the Earth's surface caused by the planet's rotation. In the Northern Hemisphere, objects are deflected to the right, while in the Southern Hemisphere, they are deflected to the left.

• coriolis effect

• High-speed air current in the upper atmosphere that influences weather patterns.

• westerlies

• Prevailing winds blowing from west to east in the mid-latitudes.

• jet stream

• Steady winds blowing towards the equator from the subtropical high-pressure belts.
