		Although the mechanism Hadley described was incorrect, predicting trade winds half as strong as the actual winds, the circulating cells that Hadley described later become known as Hadley cells.
		Benjamin Franklin observes that weather systems in North America move from west to east, demonstrates that lightning is electricity, publishes the first scientific chart of the Gulf Stream, links a volcanic eruption to weather, and speculates about the effect of deforestation on climate.
		In 1856, William Ferrel proposed the existence of a circulation cell in the mid-latitudes with air being deflected by the coriolis force to create the prevailing westerly winds.

		These effects were first described in 1923 by Sir Gilbert Thomas Walker from whom the Walker circulation, an important aspect of the Pacific ENSO phenomenon, takes its name.
		The Walker circulation is seen at the surface as easterly trade winds which move water and air warmed by the sun towards the west.
		Bjerknes in 1969 suggested that an anomalously warm spot in the eastern Pacific can weaken the east-west temperature difference, causing weakening in the Walker circulation and trade wind flows, which push warm water to the west.
