Differe between cyclonic storm and cyclonic circulation
Answers
Explanation:
ype of system Description
Cyclonic Circulation
(Cycir)
Atmospheric wind flow in upper levels associated with
any low pressure system. The wind flow is counter
clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in
the Southern Hemisphere.
Anticyclonic circulation Atmospheric wind flow in upper levels associated with
any high pressure system. The wind flow is clockwise
in the Northern Hemisphere and counter clockwise in
the Southern Hemisphere.
Low pressure Area
(LOPAR)/ well marked
LOPAR
Area in the atmosphere in which the pressures are
lower than those of the surrounding region at the same
level and is represented on a synoptic chart by a
system of one closed isobar (wind speed on the
surface < 17 Knots (Kts) when the system is at sea or
one closed isobar in the radius of 3 Deg. from the
centre over land).
Depression Intense low pressure system represented on a synoptic
chart by two or three closed isobars at 2 hPa interval
and wind speed from 17 to 27 Kts at sea and two
closed isobars in the radius of 3 Deg. from the centre
over land.
Deep Depression Intense low pressure system represented on a synoptic
chart by two or three closed isobars at 2 hPa interval
and wind speed from 28 to 33 Kts at sea and three to
four closed isobars in the radius of 3 Deg. from the
centre over land.
Cyclonic Storm Intense low pressure system represented on a synoptic
chart by more than four closed isobars at 2 hPa
interval and in which the wind speed on surface level is
in between 34 – 47 Kts.
Severe Cyclonic Strom Intense low pressure system represented on a synoptic
