How do cyclones and anticyclones differ? cyclones and anticyclones are both rotational wind systems, but they differ significantly in many ways: cyclones are areas of low pressure surrounded by high pressure. low pressure sucks air inwards, so winds flow from the outside into the center and are forced to rise as they do so. therefore, cyclones are ascending, converging wind systems. because of the directional effects of the coriolis force, they spiral counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere. anticylones are the reverse of cyclones. they are areas of high pressure surrounded by low pressure. the dense air of the high-pressure center sinks and flows outwards. this movement creates descending, diverging wind systems that spiral clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere. where are cyclones and anticyclones found in the northern and southern hemispheres? in this activity, you will identify whether low- and high-pressure systems in the two hemispheres are associated with cyclonic or anticyclonic winds and how those winds will act. drag the appropriate labels to their respective targets. each label may be used only once hints 20 140 160 e180 w 160140 120 100 80 60 40 20wo e 20 40 60 80 100 120 018 1014 1010 60 1030 clockwise 1014 40 1014 014 18 1018 divergent, clockwise 1010 itcz 1010 101 1014 it counterclockwise 1010 1014 t018 01014 40 10 counterclockwise 60 january 140 160. e180'w 160 140 120. 100. 80. 60. 40· 20. wo'e 20, 40. 60' 80-100. 1 reset
