Excerpt from Bulletin of the Mount Weather Observatory, Vol. 4
There are five barometric highs on the oceans, as indicated by figure 1, that remain substantially fixed in position throughout the year though of varying intensity. Two of these are approximately 35° north of the Equator and three about 32° south of it. Two occur in the Pacific Ocean, one just west of southern California, the other near the coast of Chile; two in the Atlantic Ocean, near Morocco and southern Africa, respectively; and one in the Indian Ocean about half way between southern Africa and Australia.
