The following text is for questions 13 to 15.

A tropical cyclone is a storm system characterized by a large low-pressure center and numerous thunderstorms that produce strong winds and heavy rains. Tropical cyclones feed on heat released when moist air rises, resulting in the condensation of water vapor contained in the moist air. They are fueled by a different heat mechanism than other cyclonic windstorms, from European windstorms and polar lows, leading to their classification as “warm core” storm systems. Tropical cyclones originate in the doldrums near the equator, about 10° away from it.

The term “tropical” refers to both the geographic origin of these systems, which form

2

almost exclusively in tropical regions of the globe and their formation in maritime tropical air masses. The term “cyclone” refers to such storms’ cyclonic nature, with counterclockwise rotation in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise rotation in the Southern Hemisphere. Depending on its location and strength, a tropical cyclone is referred to by names such as hurricane, typhoon, tropical storm, cyclonic storm, tropical depression and simply cyclone.Adopted from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal: Tropical_cyclones (March 4, 2012)
