    The exports and imports are halted in sea ports due to the cyclone. Some people lose their jobs as well. A mature tropical cyclone can release heat at a rate upwards of 6×10 14 watts. [1] Tropical cyclones on the open sea cause large waves, heavy rain, and high winds, disrupting international shipping and, at times, causing shipwrecks. [2]

  5. Rapid intensification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapid_intensification

    Smaller tropical cyclones are more likely to undergo quick intensity changes, including rapid intensification, potentially due to a greater sensitivity to their surrounding environments. [13] Hurricane Patricia experienced a 54 m/s (190 km/h; 120 mph) increase in its maximum sustained winds over 24 hours in 2015, setting a global record for 24 ...

  8. Cyclonic Niño - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclonic_Niño

    Typhoon Chan-Hom in 2003. Cyclonic Niño is a climatological phenomenon that has been observed in climate models where tropical cyclone activity is increased. Increased tropical cyclone activity mixes ocean waters, introducing cooling in the upper layer of the ocean that quickly dissipates and warming in deeper layers that lasts considerably more, resulting in a net warming of the ocean.

  9. Tropical cyclone rainfall climatology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical_cyclone_rainfall...

    Many tropical cyclones progress at a forward motion of 10 knots, which would limit the duration of this excessive rainfall to around one-quarter of a day, which would yield about 8.50 inches (216 mm) of rainfall. This would be true over water, within 100 miles (160 km) of the coastline, [8] and outside topographic features. As a cyclone moves ...
