q |
In the tropical easterlies, eastward
|
|
|
angular momentum is transferred
|
|
|
|
from Earth to the atmosphere via
|
|
|
frictional forces and mountain
|
|
|
torque.
|
|
|
q |
This westerly angular momentum
|
|
|
|
is transported upward and then
|
|
|
poleward inb the Hadley Cell.
|
|
|
q |
Eddies then transport angular
|
|
|
momentum poleward and
|
|
|
|
downward into mid-latitude
|
|
|
westerlies.
|
|
|
q |
In the mid-latitude, the westerly
|
|
|
momentum is returned to the Earth.
