Are tropical cyclones produced by the conflict between air masses and frontal activity?
No, they exist in the tropics where there is no conflict between air masses. Only mid-latitude cyclones are produced by this conflict. Tropical cyclones are perturbations in pressure which develop into areas of low pressure, fed by the latent heat of evaporating ocean water.
Where does the polar jet stream blow all year around?
All-year polar climates exist in Greenland, northern Canada, Alaska, northern Russia, and Scandinavia.
How does coriolis effect affect the cyclone?
The Coriolis force is required for a cyclone to form into a tropical cyclone or hurricane. The force causes a greater deflection of the air (right in the northern hemisphere and left in the southern) and the correct speeds for the tropical cyclone to form. Hence why tropical cyclones do not form at or within 5 degrees of the equator, and cease to exist at around 35 degrees north, or 15 degrees south.
Where are the hurricanes found?
Hurricanes are usually found in tropical and subtropical waters when weather conditions are right. They form north of 10 degrees north or south of 10 degrees south. To rotate they need the force of the earth's rotation which they do not have at the equator. (See a physics text book.) They like low pressure and warm water below, moisture and high pressure aloft. They do not form when there are high winds aloft. They do not form when there is dry air aloft. When moisture turns to rain it produces 540 calories per gram. That provides the heat to produce the winds drive the storm. The winds churn up the ocean below to produce more moisture. So hurricanes are found where the right conditions exist. Hurricanes can still exist over water where it is too cold for them to form. Their high winds can churn up enough water to keep the process going when there is no where near enough moisture to get hurricane force winds and a cyclical storm started.
What is the formula of the compound formed between sodium and francium?
This compound doesn't exist.
What kind of climates do not exist in canada?
Tropical and Highland climates do not exist in Canada. Its climates are arctic, taiga, Cordilleran, maritime, boreal, prairie and southeastern.
What is the main difference between the tropical climates?
There are big differences between the two types of tropical climates that exist. This main difference is that one is hot and dry while the other is hot and wet.
What is the main difference between the two tropical climates?
How do tropical climates differ from eachother?
What is the latitude of Savanna?
Savanna areas occupy mostly southern hemisphere Tropical latitudes, but can exist in northern hemisphere.
Why dry climates often exist on the leeward side of mountain ranges adn in the horse latitudes?
because the leeward side of a mountain doesn't get any rain like on the westward side, also air drops in horse latitudes, and when air drops it causes a dry climate
What type of climate is there in regions near mountain?
Regions near mountains can have variable climates, often with cooler temperatures due to higher elevations and increased precipitation due to orographic lifting. This can result in diverse microclimates within a relatively small area, with differences in temperature, precipitation, and vegetation depending on factors like aspect and proximity to the mountain range. This can create unique ecosystems and weather patterns in mountainous regions.
What climates exist in northern Europe?
bbb
Where do scorpions exist?
Arizona for example and hot climates
Why is a cactus restricted to the desert?
It isn't. Cacti can be grown in many climates, but most simply prefer the arid desert climes. They don't exist in other climates because other plants that are more suited to those climates choke them out by growing faster and blocking sunlight.Clarification:There are cactus species that grow in tropical rain forests, grasslands and other biomes. They are not restricted to deserts alone.
What would happen to the high middle and low latitudes if the earth was not tilted on its axis?
i don't think the latitudes would even exist because i don't think they would matter.
What is the minimum number of degrees of latitude that can exist on earth?
0 equator is the minimum degrees of latitudes
What is the longitude and latitude of rainforests in general?
Tropical Rain forests are located between the tropics (20 degrees above or below the Equator), but temperate rain forests exist well outside that line, like the pacific northwest in America or on the Japanese mainland of Honshu.
