Answer:

Subsidence

Step-by-step explanation:

subsidence is a process where cold temperatures in the polar regions cause air to descend to create high pressure it's basically the difference in temperatures that make the pressure so high because hot atoms expand and becomes less dense and rise while cold air contracts and becomes more dense and falls. hope this helps
