Why are streamlines rather than isobars used on surface weather maps in the tropics?
Streamlines are used on surface weather maps in the tropics because they better represent the flow of winds and illustrate the dynamic patterns in the region. Isobars, which connect points of equal pressure, may not accurately capture the complex wind patterns that are prevalent in the tropics due to various factors such as local terrain, convection, and tropical cyclones. Streamlines provide a more detailed and accurate representation of wind direction and flow in these areas.
What happens to pressure and isobars in cyclones and in anticyclones?
The isobars become concentric and sometimes, especially in cyclones, tightly packed with low pressure in the cyclones and high pressure in the anticyclones. In the more intense systems the isobars may be almost perfectly circular.
What does Trough means for the weather?
A trough is distinguished on the weather chart by system of isobars which appear sharply curved along a line .this curves are concave towards low pressure. Trough may be termed deep or shallow according to whether the curvature of the isobar is acute or gentle. The weather associated with a trough is generally cloudy with precipitation.
What do meteorologists use charts and graphs?
Another name for a weather map is forecast. Many meteolologists use these satillite maps to predict the weather and deliever the weather to all citizens.
Does the catastrophe have weather geologic or hurricanes cause of a tornado?
Tornadoes are produced by weather patterns. This can include hurricanes. Other catestrophes may have different causes.
Wind velocity may be roughly indicated by?
spacing of isobars on a weather map
Are weather maps and weather radar the same?
No. A weather map is an illustration that represents different components of the weather. Common elements of a weather map include wind speed and direction at various points, isobars (lines of equal barometric pressure), fronts, and high and low pressure systems. Some weather maps outline areas where there may be rain, snow, or potentially dangerous weather. Weather maps are used in showing how the weather is expected to behave over the course of a few hours or days. Weather radar is a technology that involves scanning the atmosphere with a beam of microwaves. The radar beam bounces off things such as rain and snow in the air. The signal that bounces back to the radar can be used to tell things such as where it is raining, how much, and sometimes how fast the wind in a storm is blowing. Doppler radar is used in tracking weather on a timescale of minutes.

What is a good website that shows a clear weather map of New Zealand with isobars and highs and lows and fronts?
www.metservice.co.nz On the same web site go to maps and rain radar and then go to the rain forcasts maps drop down menu, select either the 3 or 7 day map and you will get an animated prediction of the rain falling for the next 3 or 7 days. May take a little time to load but very handy.

What are the parts of a weather map?
There are several types and parts to weather maps. Parts may include: 1. Air pressure. 2. Low pressure systems. 3. High pressure systems. 4. Types of fronts which include cold, warm, occluded and stationary fronts. 5. Temperature. 6. Cloud cover. 7. Satellite and radar.

What type of map is used for road maps and whether maps?
Small scale maps are used to show motorways, major roads, etc, with little detail. Weather maps, also small scale, may show the entire UK and surrounding seas.

What does an artificial sattelite do?
Different satellites do quite different things. This may include spying; checking the weather on Earth; communications, including television transmissions; GPS and similar systems; etc.Different satellites do quite different things.

What are the new maps for MW2?
It has been mentioned that this may be in Modern Warfare 2's first map pack, titled "Stimulus Package". The maps include: Crash,Overgrown,Bailout,Salvage, and Storm
