A very large trough (about 8000 km or more) crosses the North Atlantic Ocean from north east to south west. The elongated cloud is surrounded by two big areas of higher atmospheric pressure, clearly shown with no clouds at all. A trough is an elongated area of lower air pressure.
August position of the ITCZ and monsoon trough in the Pacific Ocean, depicted by area of convergent streamlines in the northern Pacific. The monsoon trough is a portion of the Intertropical Convergence Zone in the Western Pacific, [1] [2] as depicted by a line on a weather map showing the locations of minimum sea level pressure, [1] and as such, is a convergence zone between the wind patterns ...
The summer tropical upper tropospheric trough is a dominant feature over the trade wind regions of the North Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, and Caribbean Sea, and that the lower tropospheric responses to the tropical upper tropospheric trough in the North Atlantic are differ from those in the North Pacific.

The New Caledonia Trough is an ocean floor feature that extends 2,300 km (1,400 mi) from the north of the island of Grande Terre of New Caledonia, to the coast off the Taranaki region of the North Island of New Zealand. Its southern portion includes the Taranaki Basin which has demonstrated oil reserves.
A tropical upper tropospheric trough (TUTT), also known as the mid-oceanic trough, [1] is a trough situated in the upper-level (at about 200 hPa) tropics. Its formation is usually caused by the intrusion of energy and wind from the mid-latitudes into the tropics. It can also develop from the inverted trough adjacent to an upper level anticyclone.
Reindeer live in the far northern regions of Europe, North America, and Asia.They enjoy colder climates like tundra and boreal forests. We can find them in northern countries, which include:
The trough attracts moist air from the encompassing oceans and this inflow of moist air is referred to as the monsoon. [ 7 ] During the "active" phase or "bursts", large regions of cloud and rain are formed, where there is a constant northwesterly wind on the north area of the trough, alongside heavy rainfall on the land, which last from about ...
This is north west of where the Louisville Ridge seamounts are being subducted under the Indo-Australian Plate. The Tonga-Kermadac Ridge volcanics are very active in this area north of the Monowai seamount. [10] Two other prominent basins within the trough are the Ngatoroirangi Rift at 33.5°S, and the Rumble Rift at 35.5°S. [4]
