In reply to Alex Caliostro's message of Mon, 03 Oct 2005 06:45:51 -0600: Hi, [snip] >low pressure areas are oft called troughs -- i hope the rest is obvious ><grin> [snip] Yes, the rest is then obvious. However now the question arises, as to what causes the ridges and troughs. I suppose the obvious answer is the atmosphere is in constant motion in a closed system, so it is inevitable that concentrations of air arise at times. Yet this is not an explanation that I am particularly happy with. Perhaps you could supply the conventional explanation?
