A study of large scale upper air patterns over the Himalayas in the high summer (July and August).

From an analysis of the flow over and around the Himalayas during the high summers of 1958 and 1959, it is deduced that the large-scale upper air patterns have significant effects on the surface circulation. The effect of the plateau (due to surface heating) is to induce a surface cyclonic circulation which is however often subdued by dynamic effeets. This result contradicts previous studies, in which it has always been maintained that anticyclonic circulation should result. [...]
