ANTICYCLONE(«high» ou high pressure area) : Zone de hautes pressions atmosphériques(région où la pression atmosphérique est élevée par rapport à celle du voisinage au même niveau), souvent associée à du temps calme, non perturbé. Ces hautes pressions génèrent un mouvement des particules d’air «tournant» dans le sens des aiguilles d’une montre autour du centre de l'anticyclone dans l'hémisphère Nord. 1, record 4, French, - mouvement%20des%20particules%20d%26rsquo%3Bair

The spatial displacement of an area of high pressure caused by the local redistribution of mass in the atmosphere. 1, record 6, English, - anticyclone%20movement
Record number: 6, Textual support number: 1 OBS
This redistribution is accomplished by the three-dimensional motion associated with the atmospheric circulation. The trajectory of the centre is often altered by local heating or cooling of the air column, usually as a result of thermal fluxes at the surface. These fluxes change the temperature of the air near the surface resulting in density changes which modify surface pressures. 1, record 6, English, - anticyclone%20movement

La trajectoire du centre est souvent modifiée par le réchauffement ou refroidissement local de la colonne d’air dû aux flux thermiques de surface. Ces variations de la température de l’air près de la surface affectent la densité et de ce fait modifient les pressions de surface. 1, record 6, French, - mouvement%20d%26rsquo%3Bun%20anticyclone
