- ALatitudinal variation of the atmospheric heating
- BEmergence of the pressure belt
- CEarth's revolution around the Sun
- DMigration of the pressure belts due to apparent path of the Sun
Explanation
The planetary wind system is driven by latitudinal variation in atmospheric heating, the resulting pressure belts, and the migration of those belts with the apparent path of the Sun, all modified by the Earth's rotation through the Coriolis effect. The Earth's revolution around the Sun is not a factor in the wind system. Hence it is the factor NOT connected with the planetary wind system.
