How dies friction effect the net flow of air around a cyclone and anticyclone?
Without friction air is controlled by pressure differences and the rotation of the earth. Friction slows down the air movement while the pressure source remains the same.
High-altitude airflow blows from west to east In the process how might it power both an anticyclone in the west and a neighboring cyclone to the east?
By supplying air to the anticyclone and receiving air from the cyclone
Area of high pressure where air moves apart and sinks?
Anticyclone
What is the high-pressure area containing cold and dry air?
anticyclone
Sinking air that diverges when it reaches Earth's surface is closely associated with?
Anticyclone

What is the definition of Anticyclone?
An anticyclone is a region of high atmospheric pressure relative to the surrounding air.
How does air move in anticyclone?
In an anticyclone the air moves in the opposite direction of a cyclone. In the North Hemisphere the air blows counter clockwise and in the Southern Hemispere the air blows clockwise.
What is anticyclone in geography?
anticyclone is an area of high air pressure that causes calm weather in the place it is moving over
How does air move in a anticyclone and how does this effect the weather?
The air in anticyclones moves out from the center, cool air moves downward from higher in the troposphere. Anticyclone generally causes dry, clear weather.
Are high- pressure centers of dry air?
An anticyclone
What causes wheather movement?
The movement of wheather fronts from high pressure (cyclone) to low pressure systems(anticyclone).
What are anticyclones in geography?
An anticyclone is the opposite of a depression. A depression stays for a short time whereas an anticyclone stays for a long period of time. In other words, an anticyclone is a high-pressure area, a circulation of winds around a central region of high atmospheric pressure, clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere, anticlockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.
What ar high pressure centers of dry air?
An anticyclone
High-altitude airflow blows from west to east In the process how might it power both an anticyclone in the west and a neighboring cyclone to the east?
By supplying air to the anticyclone and receiving air from the cyclone
If the air pressure in an anticyclone is high then does this mean that the air pressure in a cyclone is low?
Correct
What an anticyclone?
A weather system with high barometric pressure at it's centre, around which air slowly circulates. They are associated with fine, calm weather
