Polar Easterlies		Blow toward the equator, to Doldrums (area of low pressure). Located between 0-30 north and south.
Trade Winds		Between 30-60 latitude. High pressure at 30 causes air to descend and blow toward the poles.
Westerlies		Located above 60 latitude. High pressure over poles (caused by sinking cold dense air) causes the air to blow away from the poles toward 60 latitude.
