Detailed explanation-1: -This happens due to a mode of heat transfer known as convection. A region of air column in a geographical location gets heated up due to the sun. The temperature of the air rises. This leads to an increase in the density of air at the region and thus, the air rises above the Earth’s surface.
Detailed explanation-2: -Convection is the process of vertical heating of the atmosphere.
Detailed explanation-3: -Convection atmospheric motions in the vertical direction. In meteorology, convection refers primarily to atmospheric motions in the vertical direction. As the earth is heated by the sun, different surfaces absorb different amounts of energy and convection may occur where the surface heats up very rapidly.
Detailed explanation-4: -Jet streams are geostrophic winds that form near the boundaries of air masses with different temperatures and humidity. The rotation of the Earth and its uneven heating by the sun also contribute to the formation of high-altitude jet streams. These strong, fast winds in the upper atmosphere can blow 480 kph (298 mph).
