World Map Showing Prevailing Winds and Pressure Zones

A world map illustrates global atmospheric pressure systems and the resulting prevailing wind patterns. Key areas of high pressure, marked with an 'H', are shown primarily over the oceans in both hemispheres, with red arrows diverging outwards, indicating air flowing away from these systems. Conversely, a large low-pressure system, labeled 'L', is depicted over Asia, with blue arrows converging inwards, showing air flowing towards it. Numerous smaller red arrows across the map further visualize the general direction of global winds, such as the trade winds in tropical regions and other atmospheric flows influenced by these pressure zones.
