Siberian High : ウィキペディア英語版
Siberian High
The Siberian High (also Siberian Anticyclone) is a massive collection of cold or very cold dry air that accumulates on the northeastern part of Eurasian terrain for the cold part of the year, roughly from September till April. Usually, it is centered on Lake Baikal.〔(“The Siberian High and Climate Change over Middle to High-Latitude Asia” )〕 It reaches its greatest size and strength in the winter, when the air temperature near the center of the high-pressure cell or anticyclone is often lower than . The sea-level pressure (atmospheric pressure) is often above . The Siberian High is the strongest semi-permanent high in the northern hemisphere and is responsible for both the lowest recorded temperature in the Northern Hemisphere, of on 15 January 1885 at Verkhoyansk, and the highest pressure, 1083.8 mbar (108.38 kPa, 32.01 inHg) at Agata, Krasnoyarsk Krai on 31 December 1968.〔Encyclopedia of world climatology By John E. Oliver, 2005, ISBN 1-402-03264-1〕 The Siberian High is responsible both for severe winter cold and attendant dry conditions with little snow and few or no glaciers across Siberia, Mongolia and China. During the summer, the Siberian High is largely replaced by the Asiatic low.
The Siberian High affects the weather patterns in most parts of the Northern Hemisphere: its influence extends as far west as the Po Valley in Italy〔(A reconstructed Siberian High index since A.D. 1599 from Eurasian and North American tree rings )〕 and as far southeast as Malaysia,〔Chang Chih-peh, The East Asian Monsoon; p. 55. ISBN 978-9-812-38769-1〕 where it is a critical component of the northeast monsoon. Occasionally a strong Siberian High can bring unusually cold weather into the tropics as far southeast as the Philippines,〔(“Record Chill Spreads Deep into Southeast Asia” )〕 or as far east from Russia as Eastern Canada (which happened several times over the course of the 2014 Winter).〔http://www.theweathernetwork.com/news/articles/old-fashioned-canadian-winter/19478/0/〕 It may block or reduce the size of low-pressure cells or cyclones and generate dry weather across much of the Asian landscape with the exception of regions such as Hokuriku and the Caspian Sea coast of Iran that receive orographic rainfall from the winds it generates.
Siberian air is generally colder than Arctic air, because unlike Arctic air which forms over the sea ice around the North Pole, Siberian air forms over the cold tundra of Siberia, which does not radiate heat the same way the ice of the Arctic does.〔http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/542609/Siberian-anticyclone〕
==Genesis and variability==
In general, the Siberian High-pressure system begins to build up at the end of August, reaches its peak in the winter, and remains strong until the end of April. Its genesis at the end of the Arctic summer is caused by the convergence of summer air flows being cooled over interior northeast Asia as days shorten. In the process of the Siberian High's formation, the upper-level jet is transferred across northern Eurasia by adiabatic cooling and descending advection, which in extreme cases creates "cold domes" that outbreak over warmer parts of East Asia.
In spite of its immense influence on the weather experienced by a large proportion of the world’s population, scientific studies of the Siberian High have been late in coming, though variability of its behavior was observed as early as the 1960s.〔 However, recent studies of observed global warming over Asia have shown that weakening of the Siberian High is a prime driver of warmer winter temperatures in almost all of inland extra-tropical Asia and even over most parts of Europe,〔 with the strongest relationship over the West Siberian Plain and significant relationships as far west as Hungary and as far southeast as Guangdong. Precipitation has also been found to be similarly inversely related to the mean central pressure of the Siberian High over almost all of Eastern Europe during the boreal winter, and similar relationships are found in southern China, whilst the opposite correlation exists over the Coromandel Coast and Sri Lanka. Other studies have suggested that the strength of the Siberian High shows an inverse correlation with the high-pressure systems over North Africa.
Another correlation has been noted, a connection of a weaker Siberian High and Arctic oscillation when the Antarctic oscillation (AAO) is stronger.〔http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2004GL019465/full#grl18055-fig-0002〕
