Hopefully some of you can answer some of these questions for me. Please refer to them numerically:

1) Distinguish among macroscale, mesoscale, and microscale winds. Give an example of each.

2) What are Katabatic (fall) winds? Name 2 examples.

3) Explain how cities create their own local winds.

4) If the Earth rotated more rapidly, the Coriolis force would be stronger. How would a faster rate of rotation affect the location (latitude) of Earth's belts of subtropical high pressure?

5) What area of North America experiences a pronounced monsoon circulation?

6) Why is the flow aloft predominantly a westerly flow? At what time of the year should we expect the fastest westerly flow? Explain.

7) Describe how a major El Nino event in the tropical Pacific might affect the weather in other parts of the globe.

8) How is La Nina different from El Nino?

Thank you for your time ; )
