Hurricanes, typhoons, or cyclones, depending on which part of the world they form.
There are three main factors that affect the formation of tropical storms. First, tropical storms can only form over warm ocean water as it is the moisture from these oceans that fuels them. So they are mainly limited tropical regions. Second, wind shear can essentially tear a storm apart, so tropical storms usually do not form often in places with strong wind shear. As an example, the southern Atlantic ocean experiences a lot of wind shear, making tropical storms there extremely rare. Third, tropical storms need a strong Coriolis Effect to form as this is what drives their rotation. As a result tropical storms cannot form on the equator, and rarely form very close to it.
Tropical storms form over warm ocean water. They weaken rapidly if they hit land.
Such storms are overall called tropical cyclones. They go by different names in different regions. In the Atlantic Ocean and eastern Pacific they are called hurricanes. In the western Pacific they are called typhoons. In the southern Pacific and Indian Oceans they simply are called cyclones.

Tropical storms form when the weather system creates heat which powers the storm causing winds to increase. They rely on plenty of warm, moist air from the sea. This causes the spinning to start.

Tropical storms are fueled by water vapor that evaporates from warm ocean water. This water vapor holds enormous amounts of energy in the form of latent heat. Mars has no oceans and has very little water vapor in its atmosphere, so it cannot sustain such storms.
Another name would be cyclone, tropical cyclone or severe tropical cyclone these names apply to the storms that form in the southern pacific below the equator and the Indian ocean.
No, tornadoes most often form on land in temperate regions. Hurricanes normally form over tropical oceans.
Hurricanes form over tropical waters and are earth's largest and most destructive storms.
Tropical storms form over warm ocean water. They weaken rapidly if they hit land.
Hurricanes are powerful swirling storms found in tropical parts of the Atlantic Ocean (called tropical cyclones in Asia or typhoons in Oceania ) . Hurricanes usually begin over tropical parts of the world's oceans where the temperature is more than 27 degree Celsius.
Such storms are overall called tropical cyclones. They go by different names in different regions. In the Atlantic Ocean and eastern Pacific they are called hurricanes. In the western Pacific they are called typhoons. In the southern Pacific and Indian Oceans they simply are called cyclones.
Tropical storms need warm ocean water to form. Outside the tropics the water usually isn't warm enough.
