What are the causes of typhoons?
Why do typhoons spin clockwise and hurricanes spin counter-clock wise?
In general, it is Coriolis effect that initiates and maintains the rotation of a tropical cyclone. This phenomenon causes cyclones south of the equator to rotate clockwise, and those north of the equator to rotate anti-clockwise.
How land forms and bodies of water affects typhoon?
Typhoons gain strength when over warm waters, but cool waters and land causes them to lose strength.
What are the folk beliefs about typhoons?
no answer
Where do typhoons form?
Typhoons start off as tropical thunderstorms. The strong winds pull in moisture from the oceans. The thunderstorms convert the moisture into heat. The heat causes more air to flow to the center of the storm which causes more evaporation. All the heat and air flow toward the eye creating the typhoon.
What are the causes of typhoons?
What causes thunderstorms and typhoons?
The atmosphere's response to solar heating.
Scientific explanation why typhoons occur.?
Usually typhoons occur in tropical area where their is warm water. Typhoons causes are also moisture and inward spiraling winds. Developing typhoons gather heat and energy through contact with warm ocean waters plus moisture by evaporation from the sea surface powers them like giant heat engines.
What causes typhoons in the desert?
Typhoons cannot occur in the desert. A typhoon is a type of storm that develops over the ocean. A typhoon would fall apart long before reaching any desert.
How does the Coriolis force effect modify air movement?
In the Northern Hemisphere, the Coriolis force deflects winds to the right. This causes hurricanes and typhoons to spin counterclockwise. In the Southern Hemisphere, the Coriolis force deflects winds to the left. This causes hurricanes and typhoons to spin clockwise.
What problems are there in the coral reef?
Hurricanes, Cyclones, Typhoons, Earthquakes, or Plagues are some of the natural causes of dying Coral Reefs
Can you help prevent typhoons?
Typhoons cannot be prevented.
Does uk get typhoons?

Why do typhoons never hit land?
Typhoons do hit land.
Do typhoons travel or stay put?
Yes typhoons travel
How typhoons causes the destruction of forest?
Typhoons can cause trees to fall or be uprooted through strong winds and soil loosened by rain, which will cause soil erosion and landslides. And since the trees will be uprooted, there will be less trees to hold the soil -Tomo-graphy xD
