Abstract:
Stalled High Pressure Weather Systems (SHPWS) are associated with abnormally high temperatures, low wind velocities (except at their peripheries, where they can be quite high), cloudless skies, and a consequent lack of precipitation.
Analysis shows that the high temperatures and clear skies associated with their formation are caused by the settling out of reflective (dimming) atmospheric Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) aerosols within the area of a “High”.
This cleansing of the atmosphere allows sunshine to strike the Earth’s surface with greater intensity, resulting in substantially increased warming.
