Winds occur on a range of scales, from thunderstorm flows lasting tens of minutes, to local breezes generated by heating of land surfaces and lasting a few hours, to global winds resulting from the difference in absorption of solar energy between the climate zones on Earth. The study of wind is called anemology.

风是大规模的气体流动现象。在地球上,风是由空气的大范围运动形成的。在外层空间,太阳风是气体或带电粒子从太阳到太空的流动,而则是星球大气层的轻分子经释气作用飘散至太空。风通常可按、速度、力度、肇因、产生区域及其影响来划分。在太阳系的海王星和木星上,曾观测到迄今为止于星球上产生的最为强烈的风。 在气象学中,经常用风的強度和风的方向来描述风。短期的高速的风的爆发被稱为阵风。极短时间内(大约1分钟)的强风被称为。长时间的风可根据它们得平均强度被称呼不同的名字,比如微风、烈風、风暴、飓风、台风等。风发生的时间范围很大,有只持续几十分钟的雷暴气流,有可持续几小时的因地表加热而产生的局地微风,也有因地球上不同气候区内吸收太阳能量不同而产生的全球性的风。大尺度大氣環流产生的两个主要原因是赤道和极地之间的所受不同的加热,以及行星的旋转(科里奥利效应)。在热带,热低压和高原可以驱动季风环流。在海岸地区,海陆风循环在局地的风中占主要。在有起伏地形的地区,山谷风在局地风中占主要。 在人类文明历史中,风引发了神话,影响过历史,扩展了运输和战争的范围,为机械功,电和娱乐提供了能源。风推动着帆船在地球的大海中航行。热气球利用风可作短途旅行,动力飞行可以利用风来增加升力和减少燃料消耗。一些天气现象引发的风切变区域可以导致航空器处于危险的境况。当风变强时,会毁坏树木和人造建筑。 风还可以通过不同的风成过程(比如沃土的形成,黄土的形成)和侵蚀作用改变地表形态。盛行风可以将大沙漠的黄沙从源头带到很远的地方;粗糙的地形可以将风加速,因为对当地的影响很大,世界上一些区域的和沙尘暴相关的风都有自己的名字。风可以影响野火的蔓延。 很多种植物的种子是依靠风来散布,这些物种的生存和分布受风影响很大。一些飞行类昆虫的种群大小也受风影响。当风和低温同时发生时,对家畜会有不利影响。风还可以影响动物的食物的储存,以及它们的捕猎和自保的策略。
