Two main types:1] Planetary winds...Like the Trade Winds..which are found in certain latitudes all over the globe, blowing in the same direction throughout the year.
2]Periodic winds...Occur in certain parts of the globe. and they change their directions periodically..which may be seasonally like the Monsoon Winds, or daily, like the Land and Sea Breezes of the coastal areas.
There is also the local winds like the Chinook of the Prairies or the Mistral of Southern France.
Indonesia will probably be affected by the Monsoons...and the Trades.
That is all that I know.

Wind is the same wherever and whenever it blows! It is at the most possible to classify wind as strong, weak, mild, wild, violent, cyclonic, typhoonic, hurricanic and so on!

Sound potential, whilst the wind is decrease by potential of the blades, and whilst the blades decrease a fowl. Kinetic potential, surely this might kill a fowl. Radio wave, whilst the alternator turns, EM wave comes out. electric potential, oftentimes we aim for this.
