Hey experts! Please help me with this question !! How the variation in amount of heat received by earth causes pressure difference in the atmosphere ?! And what type of pressure difference ??!
Dear student,
The heat received from sun differ from place to place for eg. Equatorial region receive more heat compared to temaperate and frigid zones. The heat from the sun causes the air above the surface to heat up. As the air gets warmed it rises high in the atmosphere which results in a low pressure region. Similarly, the places which receive less heat are comparatively cooler and thus results in a high pressure zone.
Hope this clears your doubt.
Regards
