Where do cyclones start to appear?
in warm climates (warm places) near the equator.
What are extratropical cyclones and tropical cyclones?
extratropical cyclone is frontal depressions both with cold front and warm front air masses
What are the families of meteorological depression?
The main families of meteorological depressions are extratropical cyclones, tropical cyclones, and mesocyclones. Extratropical cyclones are large weather systems that form outside the tropics, while tropical cyclones are intense storms that form over warm ocean waters. Mesocyclones are smaller-scale rotating updrafts typically associated with severe thunderstorms.
Temperate and tropical cyclones?
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.
Can a tropical cyclone originate over a hot desert?
Tropical cyclones can only form over water. There is not enough hydrologic energy over a desert to begin the cyclonic action.
Can cyclones hit Adelaide?
Cyclones cannot hit Adelaide. Cyclones form in warm tropical waters, and then follow warm currents, but no warm currents extend from Australia's warmer waters to the south where Adelaide is located.
Where do cyclones start to appear?
in warm climates (warm places) near the equator.
Why do tropical cyclones form over water?
Because tropical cyclones feed off of the moisture of oceans and the warmer the water is, the stronger and faster the hurricane will growDo_tropical_cyclones_form_over_land
Why do cyclones occur in the coastal areas?
The most dangerous type of cyclone is a tropical cyclone such as a typhoon or hurricane. Tropical cyclones develop by feeding on the moisture that evaporates from warm ocean water. Moisture they cannot get over land. Upon hitting land these storm systems rapidly lose strength, so their worst impacts are usually confined to coastal areas.
A group of thunderstorms over warm ocean waters are called?
Groups of thunderstorms forming over warm ocean waters are referred to as tropical cyclones, or tropical depressions. Cyclones fall into different categories depending on their severity.
What are extratropical cyclones and tropical cyclones?
extratropical cyclone is frontal depressions both with cold front and warm front air masses
A tropical cyclone is a large storm created near the?
Tropical cyclones are called that near India, but they form near warm waters and areas that don't contain much wind shear, which literally kills the storm.
Are tropical cyclones produced by the conflict between air masses and frontal activity?
No, they exist in the tropics where there is no conflict between air masses. Only mid-latitude cyclones are produced by this conflict. Tropical cyclones are perturbations in pressure which develop into areas of low pressure, fed by the latent heat of evaporating ocean water.
Where do cyclones occur the most?
Tropical cyclones are most likely to occur over warm and moist, (tropical) seas and oceans. they do move across seas and builds up, but when the cyclones hits the land it will slow down and will loose energy :) hope this helped :)
How are Typhoons and tropical cyclones different?
Cyclones occur in a variety of areas around the world. "Cyclone" is the generic term for cyclones, typhoons and hurricanes. Cyclones develop in the warm seas near the equator, but do not cross the equator. Those in the southern hemisphere are usually known as cyclones, but cyclones in the China Sea region are often called typhoons, whilst those in the Americas and the Atlantic Ocean are known as hurricanes.
Where did the tropical cyclones form on land or in the ocean?
Tropical cyclones form over warm ocean waters near the equator. The warm ocean temperatures provide the energy needed for the storm to develop and strengthen. Once they make landfall, they typically weaken due to the lack of warm water as a heat source.
Does a cyclone start at the water?
Not necessarily. Although tropical cyclones can only form over warm ocean water, extratropical cyclones can form over land.
