Both temperate and tropical cyclones are low pressure adiabatic systems. However, the temperate cyclones are those which occur in mid latitudes i.e. 400 to 600 N & S. These are formed due to convergence of the warm (tropical) and Cold (Polar) airmasses. This is important to note that there confusion somewhere that these are formed by the convergence of warm and cold winds. Difference between winds and airmasses should carefully be understood. These cyclones, being convergence of contrasting airmasses, have clear and well developed fronts. In this way the entire cyclones is divided into four regions /parts. 1. Warm sector; 2. Cold sector; 3. Warm front; and 4. Cold front. The isobars of temperate cyclones are Wedge shaped or oval shaped. Whereas the tropical cyclones are those which occur in lower latitudes, normally 100 to 300 N & S latitudes and are caused due to the convergence of warm dry and warm moist airmasses. These cyclones do not experience fronts, or if have, then very weak fronts. The weather conditions, associated with the cyclone, are studied on the following 5 bases. 1. before arrival of cyclone; 2. Arrival of fore part; 3. Eye of the cyclone; 4. Arrival of back part; and 5. After departure of the cyclone. The isobars of tropical cyclones are circular.

What are the tropical cyclones of the Bay of Bengal called?
The tropical cyclones in the Bay of Bengal are called cyclones or sometimes referred to as "Bay of Bengal cyclones." These cyclones are known for forming during the monsoon season and can bring heavy rainfall and strong winds to the region.
Do hurricanes gain strength by tropical cyclones?
No. A hurricane is a tropical cyclone.
What are tropical cyclones known as in different parts of the world?
In different parts of the world, tropical cyclones are known as hurricanes in the Atlantic and eastern Pacific, typhoons in the northwestern Pacific, and cyclones in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean.
What is the opposite of tropical?
The opposite of tropical is temperate or cold. Tropical climates are characterized by high temperatures and humidity, while temperate climates have milder temperatures and distinct seasons.
Where in the world do cyclones occour?
A tropical cyclone usually happens in various parts of the Pacific Ocean and affects regions of Mexico, south-east Asia, north Australia and the south Pacific islands. In Queensland, cyclones usually happen in the north-east between Port Douglas and Maryborough. In Australia cyclone season runs from November 1 to 30 April, but most cyclones happen between December and April. About 10 cyclones develop over the waters each year and six of these cross the coast.
Tropical cyclones visiting southern Japan are called?
Tropical cyclones visiting southern Japan are called typhoons
Can the tropical rain forest be found in the temperate zone?
A tropical rainforest cannot be found in a temperate zone, only tropical. But a temperate rainforest can be found in a temperate zone.
Do tropical areas get hurricanes cyclones and typhoons?
Hurricanes and typhoons occur in tropical areas, but can move into extratropical areas as well. There are different types of cyclone, however. Tropical cyclones (hurricanes, typhoons, tropical storms and tropical depressions) form in tropical regions but extratropical and polar lows are cyclones as well.
What are the 2 different types of rainforest?
tropical and temperate
What do scientists call tropical cyclones in the Atlantic?
Tropical cyclones in the Atlantic are known as hurricanes. They rotate anti-clockwise, rather than clockwise like cyclones in the southern hemisphere.
What do oceans cause?
tropical cyclones
Why does Darwin get more rain than Brisbane?
Darwin has a tropical climate, whereas Brisbane's climate is temperate. The ocean waters around Darwin are warmer, and this generates more cyclones and tropical depressions during summer, whereas Brisbane is rarely hit by cyclones (except for the year Cyclone Wanda contributed to the 1974 Brisbane floods).
Do cyclones have eyes?
Yes, the tropical cyclones have structures that are usually referred to as eyes.
What are more deadly hurricanes or cyclones?
A hurricane is a kind of tropical cyclone. Though they do tend to be deadlier than tropical cyclones, there are exceptions.
What are the tropical cyclones of the Bay of Bengal called?
The tropical cyclones in the Bay of Bengal are called cyclones or sometimes referred to as "Bay of Bengal cyclones." These cyclones are known for forming during the monsoon season and can bring heavy rainfall and strong winds to the region.
What are hurricanes called in other parts of the world?
In the Pacific they are called typhoons. Generically, hurricanes and typhoons are both tropical cyclones. A tropical cyclone is the generic term for a non-frontal, synoptic scale, low-pressure system over tropical or sub-tropical waters with organized convection (i.e. thunderstorm activity) and definite cyclonic surface wind circulation.
Do hurricanes gain strength by tropical cyclones?
No. A hurricane is a tropical cyclone.
