Answer:

The pressure system is known as anticyclone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Anticyclone is a weather phenomenon that is has a high pressure at it's center and the pressure decreases progressively as we move away from the center of the anti-cyclone.

The direction of rotation of these weather systems is in clockwise direction in the northern hemisphere of the earth and in anti-clockwise direction in the southern hemisphere of the earth. The rotation of these weather systems arise due to a force known as Coriolis's Force generated due to rotation of earth.

In maps the areas of higher pressures are indicated by letter H.

These weather systems effect the monsoon at the place at which they occur.
