High-latitude Blocking

High-Latitude Blocking is a persistent atmospheric circulation pattern characterized by the obstruction of zonal wind flow at high latitudes, typically associated with quasi-stationary anticyclonic anomalies that disrupt the normal progression of weather systems in polar and subpolar regions.
