68
© Mark E. Damon - All Rights Reserved Example: The Hadley Cells occur near the equator. They create the NE and SE trade winds. Two Hadley cells collide at the equator as they push down on the Earth and create a low pressure zone at the equator. Where they collide with the Ferrel Cells they push air towards the atmosphere and create high pressure. Scores
