Did You Know About Tropical Cyclone.

Tropical Cyclone

In meteorology, tropical cyclones (or hurricanes, typhoons, tropical storms, typhoons, or hurricanes depending on area and power) is a type of low pressure system that generally forms in the tropics. While the like can be destructive wind high, tropical cyclones are an important part of the atmospheric circulation system, which transfers heat from the equator toward higher latitudes.
Regional growth of tropical cyclones is the world's most fertile waters of the Indian Ocean and western Australia. As explained Bureau of Meteorology of Australia, cyclone growth in the region reached an average of 10 times per year. Tropical cyclones besides destroying the area impassable, also causing flooding. Australia has developed an early warning to reduce the level of risk the threat of tropical cyclones since the 1960s.

Clumps of coal machinery. 


tropical cyclone is an area of ​​activity

Based on the structure, a tropical cyclone is an area of ​​activity of the giant clouds, wind, and thunderstorms that range. The primary energy source of a tropical cyclone is the release of heat of condensation / condensation of the water vapor condenses on the altitude. Therefore, a tropical cyclone can be interpreted as a giant vertical-fired engine.
The elements of a tropical cyclone include the existing weather conditions, warm tropical oceans, moisture (moisture), and high winds are relatively light. If the right conditions persist long enough, they can be interlocked to produce fierce winds, incredible waves, torrential rains, and floods alongside this phenomenon.
Use of this condensation as a primary driving force is furak distinguishes tropical cyclones from other meteorological phenomena. Cyclone middle latitudes, for example, describe their energy mostly from the rise and fall of temperature in the atmosphere that has been there. In order to continue to push the coals engine, a tropical cyclone must remain over warm water, which presents the atmospheric moisture needed. Evaporation of moisture is driven by high winds and reduced atmospheric pressure present in the storm, resulting in protracted cycle. As a result, when a tropical cyclone passes over land, power will be depleted rapidly.

Classification and terminology. 

Tropical cyclones are classified into three main groups: tropical depressions, tropical storms, and a third group whose name depends on the region.
A tropical depression is a system of clouds and thunderstorms with circulation and maximum sustained surface winds of less than 17 meters terarasi per second (33 knots, 38 m / h, or 62 km / h). He does not have eyes, and not typical of the spiral shape of the storms stronger. He is already a low-pressure system, however, so called "depression".
The tropical storm is a system of strong thunderstorms with circulation and maximum sustained surface wind ter-Arasi between 17 and 33 meters per second (34-63 knots, 39-73 m / h, or 62-117 km / h). At this time, started to built up its own form of cyclones, although his eyes do not usually appear.
The term used to describe tropical cyclones with maximum sustained winds exceed 33 meters per second (63 knots, 73 m / h, or 117 km / h) varies depending on the region of origin, for example as follows:
Hurricanes in the North Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean east international dateline, and the South Pacific Ocean east of 160 ° BT
Typhoon in the Southwest Pacific Ocean west line dating
Severe tropical cyclones in the Southwest Pacific Ocean west of 160 ° East or Northeast Indian Ocean east 90 ° East
Severe cyclones in the North Indian Ocean
Tropical cyclones in the Southwest Indian Ocean
Elsewhere in the world, hurricanes have been known as Bagyo in the Philippines, Chubasco in Mexico, and Taino in Haiti.
The central part of the tropical cyclone is called eye is a circle of diameter between 10 to 100 kilometers, the most frequently reported to be around 40 meters. This section wind speed is lower even air-bright sky. Eyes surrounded by walls as high as 16 kilometers dense clouds with great wind and rain.

Etymology. 

The word hurricane is derived from the Chinese phrase Tai Feng or in Japanese "Fuun dai" (台风) which means "big wind". Indonesian spelling also proposed relationship with the Persian word, طوفان storm, related to the Greek word, Typhon.
The word hurricane is derived from the name of the indigenous Amerindian Caribbean storm god, Huracan.
The word comes from the Greek word cyclone Kyklos = "circle", "wheel."

Coastal flooding. 

As the flooding associated with tropical storms (also called cyclones or typhoons sea). Catastrophic flooding of flood water is getting worse due to frequent rain storms triggered by strong winds along the coast. Salt water flooded the land due to one or a blend of the impact of tidal waves, hurricanes, or tsunamis (tidal waves). Just like a river overflowing flood, heavy rain that fell in a broad geographic area will result in severe flooding in coastal valleys approaching the mouth of the river.

Incidence of tropical cyclones or hurricanes. 

The signs of the birth of a tropical storm can be predicted. The existence and movement can be observed with the technology. Only sometimes, the signs of the storm can be observed, felt and compared.
Hurricane Fiona: February 6, 2003 Date of tropical cyclones Fiona were in 300 miles off the southern coast of Java. Estimated wind speed at the center of the storm 104 miles per hour and storm tail reaches 84 miles per hour.
Cyclone Ivy dated February 27, 2004, with the formation of a low pressure center which converge and rotate. This occurs in the Pacific Ocean in the southeast of Papua and in the Indian Ocean near Australia. Cyclones in the Pacific Ocean was named Tropical Cyclone Ivy and in the West Australian named Tropical Cyclone Monty. Effect of Cyclone Ivy when it is more dominant, it draws the clouds that exist in Indonesia towards the cyclone center (southeast of Papua). As a result most of Indonesia likely to clear up cloudy moment after rain-hit days. Only the region of Papua strong chance of heavy rain as it is closer to the center of the cyclone Ivy.
Fay tropical cyclones in the Timor Sea dated March 17, 2004 at 9:30 am local time, moving to the southwest at a speed of 6 kilometers per hour motion. Such publications are continuously updated and proclaimed Indonesia and Australia meteorological agency as an early warning to the population. Daily COMPASS on the same day warned of a wave of 1.5 to 2.5 meters in the Indian Ocean which is dangerous for fishing vessels, barges and ferries.
The threat of a storm that struck Yogyakarta recently. These storms threaten coastal areas south of Yogyakarta, between February 9 to February 11, 2005. Administration provides 5 units and command posts alarms in anticipation of the storm that ultimately did not come this. Indonesian tropical cyclones in the South, has always appeared every year in January-March. The reason is the high sea surface temperatures in the northeast of Australia. Indonesian territory not traversed the center of a tropical storm, only affected by the storm's tail. Impact in the form of strong winds, heavy rain, and high sea waves. Preceded the appearance of the center of low pressure cyclone in northwestern Australia and moving toward the southwest. Effects commonly accepted southern coast of Indonesia is usually the effect of the tail of the cyclone, not as a result of tropical storm center.
