  2. Cyclogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclogenesis

    Cyclogenesis is the development or strengthening of cyclonic circulation in the atmosphere (a low-pressure area). [1] Cyclogenesis is an umbrella term for at least three different processes, all of which result in the development of some sort of cyclone , and at any size from the microscale to the synoptic scale .

    A bomb cyclone, also referred to as explosive cyclogenesis or bombogenesis, is a mid-latitude cyclone that has rapidly intensified. A cyclone is a low-pressure weather system - one where the ...

  5. Explosive cyclogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explosive_cyclogenesis

    Explosive cyclogenesis (also referred to as a weather bomb, [1] [2] [3] meteorological bomb, [4] explosive development, [1] bomb cyclone, [5] [6] or bombogenesis [7] [8] [9]) is the rapid deepening of an extratropical cyclonic low-pressure area. The change in pressure needed to classify something as explosive cyclogenesis is latitude dependent ...

  6. Cyclone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclone

    Tropical cyclogenesis is the development and strengthening of a tropical cyclone. [28] The mechanisms by which tropical cyclogenesis occurs are distinctly different from those that produce mid-latitude cyclones. Tropical cyclogenesis, the development of a warm-core cyclone, begins with significant convection in a favorable atmospheric ...

  7. Low-pressure area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-pressure_area

    Cyclogenesis is the development and strengthening of cyclonic circulations, or low-pressure areas, within the atmosphere. [3] Cyclogenesis is the opposite of cyclolysis, and has an anticyclonic (high-pressure system) equivalent which deals with the formation of high-pressure areas—anticyclogenesis. [4]

    What causes earthquakes? Earthquakes occur when the plates that make up the Earth's crust move around. These plates, called tectonic plates, can push against each other.

  9. Occluded front - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occluded_front

    Diagram of a cyclone in the early stages of occlusion in the Northern Hemisphere. In meteorology, an occluded front is a type of weather front formed during cyclogenesis.The classical and usual view of an occluded front is that it starts when a cold front overtakes a warm front near a cyclone, such that the warm air is separated (occluded) from the cyclone center at the surface.
