it is because air sinks at the poles
What else can I help you with?
Does the south pole have high or low pressure?
High-Pressure region.
Does the north pole have a high or low air pressure?
High Pressure
Would you expect high or low pressure at the pole?
you would expect it to have high pressure
Is the North Pole a high or low pressure area?
low
Does the north pole have high air pressure?
The North Pole generally experiences high air pressure due to the cold temperatures and the sinking air associated with colder regions. These conditions typically result in stable weather conditions with clear skies.
South Pole low-pressure region?
The South Pole is a low pressure region. Cold temperature areas tend to be low pressure while tropical regions are commonly high pressure.
After high pressure areas are created around the poles cold polar air flows toward what?
The South Pole
What type of pressure is at the north and south pole?
in north pole
Where on earth do the winds always blow from the South?
The winds always blow from the south at the South Pole due to the rotation of the Earth and the Coriolis effect, which causes the winds to flow from high pressure to low pressure areas. This is known as the polar easterlies.
Does the air above the north pole or south pole rise because it has low density and low pressure?
low pressure
Which direction does the wind blow at the north pole?
At the North Pole, wind direction can vary but is generally from the south due to the rotation of the Earth. This creates a circulation pattern where air moves from high pressure areas towards lower pressure areas, which can lead to southward winds at the North Pole.
Is the altitude of the south pole high or low?
High. From Wikipedia: "[The South Pole] sits atop a featureless, windswept, icy plateau at an altitude of 2,835 meters (9,306 ft), about 1,300 km (800 mi) from the nearest open sea at the Bay of Whales. The ice is estimated to be about 2,700 meters (9,000 ft) thick at the Pole, so the land surface under the ice sheet is actually near [or lower] than sea level."
