What is Anabatic Wind?
Local winds that blow from slopes to peaks as a result of the heating of the top slopes without being affected by general pressure changes. Generally, the term is used for upward air currents, vertical movements in the formation of cumulus clouds, and valley breezes rather than anabatic winds. Anabatic winds are less common than katabatic winds, which occur through the opposite process.
