Main Body
Tropical cyclones generally occur in summer and monsoon season in India and extra-tropical occur in winter season. Diagram showing: Subsiding air, cold water, temperate conditions. Tropical: 1) Formed by subsiding air and anticyclonic circulation (Northern hemisphere). 2) Typically on ocean (SST 27°C). 3) Loses energy after landfall. 4) High speed (some 210+ kph). Temperate: 1) Formed by frontogenesis. 2) Formed on ocean or land. 3) Continues to have energy until occluded (Western jetstream - to bring them to India). 4) Comparatively slow. Formation of tropical cyclones: 1) A low pressure area is formed ocean. 2) Anikthon high pressure area arrives to balance potential.
Continuation of tropical cyclone formation: 3) Coriolis force = Does not allow potential to be balanced = Circulation around depression eye. 4) Heating of air = Cumulonimbus clouds in eye walls (Moisture present above ocean). 5) Movement around eye = Eye's movement towards east (BoB cyclones). Features Extra: 1) Low wind shear. 2) Subsiding air into eye. Formation of tropical cyclones: 1) A low pressure area is formed ocean. 2) Anikthon high pressure area arrives to balance potential (Coriolis force = Does not allow potential to be balanced = Circulation around depression eye). 3) Heating of air = Cumulonimbus clouds in eye walls. 4) Movement around eye = Eye's movement towards east (BoB cyclones).
Continuation from Q.7: Low wind shear, Subsiding air into eye. Coastal Volunteers (DORP of local govt), Coastal barriers (Mangroves, coral reefs), Measures to protect for system, Rain water harvesting, Resilience in extra-tropical cyclones. Coastal EWS SAMUDRA. Climate change has increased scurrence of cyclones in Arabian ocean and BoB and hence, adaptation, mitigation and preparedness is the need of the hour.
Conclusion
Climate change has increased scurrence of cyclones in Arabian ocean and BoB and hence, adaptation, mitigation and preparedness is the need of the hour.
