Wind Sounds

Bien coincé avant d'écouter, parce que Wind est parfois accompagné d'ouragans!

The Wind Sounds are one of the most relaxing sounds in existence

Wind is caused by differences in the atmospheric pressure. When a difference in atmospheric pressure exists, air moves from the higher to the lower pressure area, resulting in winds of various speeds. On a rotating planet, air will also be deflected by the Coriolis effect, except exactly on the equator. Globally, the two major driving factors of large-scale wind patterns (the atmospheric circulation) are the differential heating between the equator and the poles (difference in absorption of solar energy leading to buoyancy forces) and the rotation of the planet. Outside the tropics and aloft from frictional effects of the surface, the large-scale winds tend to approach geostrophic balance. Near the Earth's surface, friction causes the wind to be slower than it would be otherwise. Surface friction also causes winds to blow more inward into low-pressure areas.

Depending upon the speed of the wind and the objects it's passing through, around, or over, the wind can cause a wide variety of sounds, from the soft rustling of leaves and the delicate notes of wind chimes to the "whoosh" of a stiff breeze and the loud whistle of storm winds approaching.

The Wind Sounds are one of the most relaxing sounds in existence. ... The Wind Sounds are great for helping one to fall asleep and for covering background noises. Wind noise is a natural source of white noise.
