OR

 Explain the categorisation of cold anticyclones.

Answer 1

The cold anticyclones arising in the polar regions have been divided into the following categories on the basis of activation:

1. Temporary and transient anticyclone. 

2. Semi – permanent anticyclone.

1. Temporary and transient anticyclone: This type of anticyclone ends on their way by themselves. Only a few of these reach the tropics. 

2. Semi – permanent anticyclone: These are more active and the path of these types of anticyclones is also extended.
