Low-pressure area a typhoon occurs in the northwestern Pacific Ocean, and a cyclone occurs in the south Pacific or Indian Ocean. Friction with land slows down the wind flowing into low-pressure systems and causes wind to flow more inward, or flowing more ageostrophically, toward their centers. A low-pressure area is commonly associated with inclement weather, while a high-pressure area is associated with light winds and fair skies. Tornados are often too small, and of too short duration, to be influenced by the Coriolis force, but may be so-influenced when arising from a low-pressure system. Low-pressure area A low-pressure area, low, depression or
Back pressure device halts the sending of data packets until the buffers have been emptied and are once more capable of storing information. It also refers to an algorithm for routing data according to congestion gradients (see backpressure routing). Back pressure Back pressure (or backpressure) is a nonstandard term used to describe pressure opposed to the desired flow of fluid in a system. The term is misleading because pressure is a scalar quantity having a magnitude but with no direction associated with it. The obstructions or tight bends in a confined space such as an exhaust pipe oppose desired flow and reduce
