D. convection.
Convection is the primary driver of air circulation in the atmosphere. It involves the movement of air due to differences in temperature and density. Warm air rises because it is less dense, and cooler air sinks, creating a circulation pattern. This process is fundamental in the formation of weather patterns and various atmospheric phenomena.
