Cyclones gain energy and power primarily from warm ocean waters. When the surface temperature of the ocean rises above approximately 26.5 degrees Celsius (about 80 degrees Fahrenheit), it provides the necessary heat and moisture that fuels the storm. As warm, moist air rises, it creates a low-pressure system, drawing in more air and leading to the characteristic rotation of the cyclone due to the Coriolis effect. Additionally, the release of latent heat during condensation of water vapor further intensifies the storm.

What is the energy source for storms?

The energy source for storm is cyclones.


What is the source of power for a storm?

Heat energy from the Earth's surface (usually from sunlight) causes the convection cycle that creates thunderstorms and cyclones. Cyclones and tropical storms get their energy from warm tropical waters, and are part of the process that transfers heat from the warmer tropics to the cooler higher latitudes.


Do hurricanes gain strength by tropical cyclones?

No. A hurricane is a tropical cyclone.


Which is stronger tornadoes or cyclones?

The term cyclone refers to a wide variety of weather phenomena. Many cyclones are not particularly violent, though tropical cyclones (hurricanes and typhoons) generally are. Generally speaking tornadoes are more violent than cyclones but cyclones cover a much larger area and so release much more energy.


How can increases in the earth's temperature lead to powerful cyclones?

Increases in the earth's temperature from global warming are putting extra heat into the oceans and atmosphere. Storms and cyclones need energy and this heat is extra energy which is expended in storms.


What is a Decibel power gain?

Generally power is expressed in watts. The gain is the ratio of the output power to the input power. Gain = (output power)/(input power) if the gain is expressed in terms of log(base10) it is known as Decibel power gain Decibel power gain = Log10(Gain)dB if 1milliwatt power is taken as reference then Decibel power gain = Log10(Output power/1 milliwatt)dBm

Why do tropical cyclones produce such violent weather?

Tropical cyclones produce violent weather due to the combination of warm ocean temperatures, high humidity, and low wind shear. These conditions help fuel the storm, allowing it to strengthen rapidly and generate intense winds, heavy rainfall, and dangerous storm surges. The powerful convection within the storm system also contributes to its violent nature.
