Abstract:

Starting with a recent unconventional explanation of the lift force on a wing, featuring compressibility of the air, an application of the same concept is made to the lift force on the equatorial sea surface due to the Trade Winds, by greatly increasing the spatial scales. If the equatorial sea level does rise up, the northward slope to the sea level should facilitate the poleward flux of summer heat in both the North Pacific and North Atlantic Oceans, as two examples, in accordance with the heat budget requirements of these oceans. Compressed air dynamics consists of Bernoulli’s law applied to the streamlines of the Trade Winds, the force balance between the upward centrifugal force of the curved streamlines at the earth’s surface and a downward pressure force, and the perfect gas law for air.
