On the globe that is shown, some of the winds have their directions marked correctly, while some are wrong. The winds that are dominating the space between the Equator and the Tropic of Cancer, and the Equator and the Tropic of Capricorn, are correct. These are the Easterly winds. They are constant winds that blow from east to west. The winds that are dominant at the mid-latitudes, are the Westerly winds, and they blow from west to east on both hemispheres, so on the picture, only the ones on the South Hemisphere are correct. The winds that come from the poles are slightly turning towards west, so only the wind marked on the North Pole, or rather the Arctic Circle is correct.
