This chapter explores the intricate interactions between the atmosphere and ocean, emphasizing atmospheric composition and the impact of uneven solar heating. It discusses large-scale surface wind patterns, including the Coriolis effect and atmospheric circulation cells. Key features such as the Intertropical Convergence Zone, monsoons, and different types of storms—extrapolar and tropical—are examined. By understanding heat budgets and convection currents, we uncover how these elements shape weather and climate. Additionally, we provide links for further exploration through engaging videos.
