Pressure system minima in the pressure field. The minima are called low-pressure areas, and the maxima are called high-pressure areas. A "High" is often shown as H, and a "low" is shown as L. Elongated areas of low pressure, or troughs, are sometimes plotted as thick, brown dashed lines down the trough axis. Isobars are commonly used to place surface boundaries from the horse latitudes poleward, while streamline analyses are used in the tropics. A streamline analysis is a series of arrows oriented parallel to wind, showing wind motion within a certain geographic area. Cs depict cyclonic flow or likely areas of
Intrapleural pressure effects - 1.) mullers maneuver -forced inspiration against a closed glottis results in negative pressure... 2.) Deep inspiration Pathological effects : 1.) Emphysema 2.) Pneumothorax Condition. Intrapleural pressure In physiology, intrapleural pressure (also called intrathoracic pressure) refers to the pressure within the pleural cavity. Normally, the pressure within the pleural cavity is slightly less than the atmospheric pressure, in what is known as "negative pressure". When the pleural cavity is damaged/ruptured and the intrapleural pressure becomes equal to or exceeds the atmospheric pressure, pneumothorax may ensue. Intrapleural pressure depends on the ventilation phase, atmospheric pressure, and the volume of the
