Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The flow of air aloft in the mid-latitudes is generally from west to east, known as the prevailing westerlies. East to west flow is not a typical pattern in this region. The other statements are true, as wind speed aloft is generally greater than wind speed at the surface, and this circulation is restricted to the troposphere.
