Abstract
The 100mb Patterns in southern Asia in summer are investigated.It is found that the 100mb anticyclone over the Tibetan Plateau is a large and stable circulation feature in the subtropical region of the northern hemisphere,atad that it oscillates about its mean position.During its oscillation the West-Pacific subtropical anticyclone at 500 mb level shows a cycle of movement over the land of the Far East.When the 100mb anticyclone leaves the plateau,the West-Pacific subtropical anticyclone at 500 mb level advances to the land,while the 100mb anticyclone returns to the plateau,the West-Pacific anticyclone retreats from the land.This is a good criterion for forecasting the movement of West-Pacific anticyclone in summer.
