At 30° north latitude, at the northern edge of tropical (Hadley) cell convection in the northern hemisphere d. becoming drier as it heats up
Hadley cells: A cell in the tropics is called Hadley cell. Ferrel cells: In the middle latitudes the circulation is that of sinking cold air that comes from the poles and the rising warm air that blows from the subtropical high. At the surface these winds are called westerlies and the cell is known as the Ferrel cell.
As air is warmed at the equator it becomes less dense and rises, while at the poles the cold air is denser and sinks.
Because of the rotation of the Earth and the Coriolis Effect, rather than a single atmospheric convection cell in each hemisphere, there are three major cells per hemisphere. Warm air rising at the equator cools as it moves through the upper atmosphere, and it descends at around 30° latitude.
The convection cells created by rising air at the equator and sinking air at 30° are referred to as Hadley Cells, of which there is one in each hemisphere. The cold air that descends at the poles moves over the Earth’s surface towards the equator, and by about 60° latitude it begins to rise, creating a Polar Cell between 60° and 90°.
