Question

Distinguish between tropical and extratropical cyclone

Answer 1

hi,
here is the answer
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

EXTRA TROPICAL CYCLONE

An extra-tropical cyclone is a low pressure system that primarily gets its energy from the temperature difference in the horizontal direction across the cyclone (known as temperature gradient in meteorology) .


TROPICAL CYCLONE

Tropical cyclones, in contrast, typically have little or no significant temperature differences across the storm. Their energy are derived from the release of heat due to cloud/rain formation from the warm moist air of the tropics. Structurally, tropical cyclones are "warm-core".
