Low-pressure area mesocyclones, but more often develop from environments of high instability and low vertical wind shear. In deserts, lack of ground and plant moisture that would normally provide evaporative cooling can lead to intense, rapid solar heating of the lower layers of air. The hot air is less dense than surrounding cooler air. This, combined with the rising of the hot air, results in a low-pressure area called a thermal low. Monsoon circulations are caused by thermal lows which form over large areas of land and their strength is driven by how land heats more quickly than the surrounding nearby ocean.
Blood pressure semi-automated methods measure blood pressure using a time honored principle called Oscillometry. For instance, a group of researchers at Michigan state University used this principle to develop a device to measure blood pressure with your smartphone. Blood pressure is influenced by cardiac output, total peripheral resistance and arterial stiffness and varies depending on situation, emotional state, activity, and relative health/disease states. In the short term, blood pressure is regulated by baroreceptors which act via the brain to influence nervous and endocrine systems. Blood pressure that is low is called hypotension, and pressure that is consistently high is hypertension. Both have
