Title: A Numerical Experiment of the Dynamic Effect of Large Scale Topography on the Formation of Subtropical High in the Northern Summer
Abstract: It is found that the zonal subtropical high belt in the Northern Hemisphere summer always breaks into some distinct anticyclonic circulation systems. These are the Qinghai-Xizang high, the Rocky high, the Iranian high, the North Africa high, the Pacific high and the Atlantic high. Three dimensional structure of these anticyclones was obtained in terms of the observed mean circulation charts by Van de Boogaard (1977). The features of vertical structures of these highs are different from each other.
