Comparing the two sets of graphs (Figures 9.3 and 9.4 with Figures 11.8 and 11.9), what correlation can be seen between global temperature and pressure patterns? Select a few areas that seem to illustrate a link between your graphs.
Refer to the global air temperature profiles you plotted in Section 2 of Lab Exercise 9 (temperature maps in Figure 9.2a (January) and 9.2b (July), and your graphs in Figures 9.3a and 9.3b and Figures 9.4a and 9.4b). Those temperature profiles in Lab Exercise 9 and these pressure profiles you just completed for this exercise are along the same parallels and meridians.
