They are two of six major air circulation cells on Earth.

Not exact matches

Most foam crib mattresses have only a very small degree of breathability, but Colgate uses high quality, open cell foam and PE foam engineered with air channels to enhance circulation.
According to the three researchers, ENSO - related warming during El Niño conditions is caused by a stronger Hadley Cell circulation moving warm tropical air into the mid-latitudes.
A bamboo celling fan revolves above to maintain air circulation and a comfortable temperature.
Whereas the Walker Circulation (or «Walker Cell») refers to an air flow parallel with the equator — all in the tropics — the Hadley Cell involves air rising in the tropics (follows the solar equator and gives rise to the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) which then flows polewards before sinking in the subtropics.
I suggest the slowing of Hadley cell circulation caused by weaker differential temperatures between major air masses, this will cause all the phenomenas cited.
This leads to more heat transport to the poles, as well as via air (increased Hadley cell circulation) as via sea currents.
In 1856, William Ferrel proposed the existence of a circulation cell in the mid-latitudes with air being deflected by the Coriolis force to create the prevailing westerly winds.
Warm the air at its entry point into this high pressure cell and you will stall the circulation.
The ITCZ is located at the ascending branch of the Hadley cell, an atmospheric circulation associated with rising air near the equator and descending air in subtropical regions (see Fig. 2 for a schematic).
Furthermore warm ocean surfaces really do send the air circulation systems poleward whilst changes in the intensity of the polar high pressure cells work in opposition to those oceanic effects.
the el nino circulation is so clearly right on the equator... and discussion of air mass cells and oscillations and cyclones, and monsoons and jet streams — all this really needs to be animated to make sense.
showing how EM radiation, heat and air / water kinetic energy (in cells, circulations, currents, weather systems and convection columns and so on) move and how long they have to move before they reach some kind of equilibrium would go some way to visualising why it takes time for the earth system to respond to radiative forcing (commitment time lag).
Convection is characterized by a circulation pattern of rising and sinking air masses, and the atmospheric vertical volume transport takes place through cells of updraft and subsidence; however, these may not be coherent or stable in time and space.
The observed circulation changes are in the form of a series of high - and low - pressure cells that follow an arcing path in the air from the tropical Pacific to West Antarctica.
