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.


Does the air above the north pole or south pole rise because it has low density and low pressure?

low pressure


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.


Does the north pole have a high or low air pressure?

High Pressure


Is the North Pole a high or low pressure area?

low


Would you expect high or low pressure at the pole?

you would expect it to have high pressure


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.


Why you always find low pressure near south pole?

due to gravity


Where do global winds form?

Global winds also occur because large high- and low-pressure zones alternate from the North Pole to the South Pole about every 30° latitude (north-south location). Both poles have high-pressure air masses (cold, dry, high pressure) and the air above the equator is a low-pressure zone (hot, moist, low pressure). Because high pressure always invades low pressure, the resulting winds-where the high- and low-pressure zones meet-are pretty reliable. They are known as the polar easterlies (at 60° latitude north and south); the westerlies or prevailing winds (at 30° latitude north and south); and the tropical easterlies or trade winds (at the equator, 0° latitude). I hope this helps your question! :)


Is the South Pole a high or low region?

The elevation of the South Pole is more than 9,300 feet above sea level.


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."


A south wind would blow toward the south pole true of false?

The name south, west etc tells us the direction the wind comes from. So a south wind comes from the south and blows toward the north.However, at the South Pole it is not possible to have a south wind because all directions from that point are north. Therefore the answer is false.
