A high pressure system that appears in the Sea of Okhotsk. It often appears mainly from late May to early July. Even if its center is not in the Sea of Okhotsk, it is called by the same name if it is in the vicinity. In the upper atmosphere, it is often accompanied by a ridge of pressure caused by the westerly wind wave or a cut-off high, in which case that part is a tall warm high. However, the lower layer is occupied by a cold and humid marine polar air mass (the Sea of Okhotsk air mass), which blows into the Tohoku region of Honshu and Hokkaido as a cold northeasterly wind (which is often called "yamase" in many regions). If this high pressure system is dominant and stagnates for a long period of time, it can cause a prolonged rainy season or a cool summer, resulting in cold damage. It can also appear temporarily in other seasons, bringing gloomy weather similar to the rainy season.

オホーツク海に現れる高気圧。主として5月下旬ごろから7月の前半にかけてよく出現する。中心がオホーツク海になくても、その近傍にある場合には、同じ名前でよばれる。上空では偏西風波動の気圧の尾根や切離(せつり)高気圧が対応していることが多く、その場合には、その部分は背の高い温暖高気圧である。しかし下層は冷湿な海洋性寒帯気団(オホーツク海気団)で占められており、本州の東北地方や北海道に冷たい北東風(これを「やませ」とよぶ地方が多い)となって吹き込んでくる。この高気圧が優勢で停滞期間が長いと、梅雨が長引いたり、冷夏になったりして冷害がおこる。ほかの季節にも一時的に現れることがあり、梅雨に似たぐずついた天気をもたらす。 [倉嶋 厚] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
