2. Monsoon of South Asia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monsoon_of_South_Asia

   As the Tibetan Plateau heats up, the low pressure created over it pulls the westerly jet north. Because of the lofty Himalayas, the westerly jet's movement is inhibited. But with continuous dropping pressure, sufficient force is created for the movement of the westerly jet across the Himalayas after a significant period.

3. Low-pressure area - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-pressure_area

   In meteorology, a low-pressure area, low area or low is a region where the atmospheric pressure is lower than that of surrounding locations. It is the opposite of a high-pressure area . Low-pressure areas are commonly associated with inclement weather (such as cloudy, windy, with possible rain or storms), [ 1 ] while high-pressure areas are ...

4. Tibetan Plateau - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tibetan_Plateau

   The warmer air over land tends to rise, creating an area of low pressure. The pressure anomaly then causes a steady wind to blow toward the land, which brings the moist air over the ocean surface with it. Rainfall is then increased by the presence of the moist ocean air.

5. Geography of Tibet - Wikipedia

   At that time the most essential heating surface of the atmosphere – which at present, i.e. interglacially, is the Tibetan plateau – was the most important cooling surface. [17] The annual low-pressure area induced by heat above Tibet as a motor of the summer monsoon was lacking. The glaciation thus caused a breaking-off of the summer ...

   When meteorologists use the term: low pressure area, what are they referring to?There are quite a number of scientific terms commonly used in weather forecasting and low pressure is one of the ...

7. Pressure system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_system

   A low-pressure area is a region where the atmospheric pressure at sea level is below that of surrounding locations. Low-pressure systems form under areas of wind divergence that occur in the upper levels of the troposphere. [1] The formation process of a low-pressure area is known as cyclogenesis. [2]

9. Thermal low - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_low

   That, combined with the rise of the hot air, results in a low pressure area called a thermal low. [1] Over elevated surfaces, heating of the ground exceeds the heating of the surrounding air at the same altitude above sea level, which creates an associated heat low over the terrain, and enhances any thermal lows which would have otherwise existed.
