low pressure
Horse Latitudes
No, it's a high pressure region.From wikipedia-Horse Latitudes or Subtropical High are subtropical latitudes between 30 and 35 degrees both north and south. This region, under a ridge of high pressure called the subtropical high, is an area which receives little precipitation and has variable winds mixed with calm.
There are several other names for high latitude areas of the world. There is the Arctic/Antarctic, tundra/taiga, and several other things.
The subtropical high pressure regions are centered at approximately 30 degrees north and south latitude.
it is found over the north and south poles

This region, under a ridge of high pressure called the subtropical high, is an area which receives little precipitation and has variable winds mixed with calm.
The bands of high pressure and low pressure found every 30 degrees of latitude are called the Horse Latitudes and the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), respectively. The Horse Latitudes are regions of subtropical high pressure where sinking air creates calm conditions, while the ITCZ is a region near the equator where warm, moist air rises, creating low pressure and often precipitation.

High-Pressure region.
The high pressure region of a longitudinal wave is called compression.
Low air pressure typically occurs at the equator (0° latitude) and in the polar regions (around 60-70° latitude). At the equator, air is warm and rises, creating a region of low pressure. In the polar regions, cold air sinks and creates high pressure, resulting in low pressure areas at the surface.
There are several other names for high latitude areas of the world. There is the Arctic/Antarctic, tundra/taiga, and several other things.
The high air-pressure dry-climate belt is typically located around 30 degrees latitude, both north and south of the equator. This region is known as the horse latitudes and is characterized by descending air that warms and dries, leading to arid conditions.
The uneven heating of the earth produces pressure belts. these belts occur at about every 30 degrees latitude. The rotation of the Earth flings the bulk of the air creating an area of low pressure belt in this region.
these are the subtropical high pressure zones
A region of high pressure in a sound wave is called compression. This is the part where air particles are pushed closer together, resulting in higher pressure.
