Question

There are certain regions in the world where cyclones are less likely to occur. These are generally areas surrounded by oceans with colder water currents and high-speed winds. Why do these attributes result in lower possibility of a cyclone?
(a) Cold ocean currents make evaporation more difficult
(b) Cyclones form when hot air rises from warm oceanic surfaces
(c) Cyclones form when speed wind and high-pressure regions develop.
(d) High speed wind over colder oceanic regions leads to temperature drop.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Only two tropical ocean basins do not support tropical cyclones, because they lack waters that are sufficiently warm. The Peru Current in the eastern South Pacific and the Benguela Current in the South Atlantic carry cool water Equatorward from higher latitudes and so deter tropical cyclone development.
