what is the high pressure area in the middle latitude
1 answer
The high pressure area in the middle latitudes is referred to as the subtropical high or the Bermuda High. It is a semi-permanent high-pressure system located over the Atlantic Ocean around the latitudes of 30 degrees north and south. This high-pressure system is caused by the sinking of dry, stable air from the upper atmosphere, which inhibits cloud formation and precipitation. The Bermuda High is an important feature of global weather patterns and can influence the tracks of tropical storms and hurricanes as well as the weather patterns across much of the United States and Europe.
