Question

What are the important factors for the occurrence of cyclonic storms?

Answer 1

Hi,

There are main requirements for tropical cyclogenesis:

1. Sufficiently warm sea surface temperatures,

2. Atmospheric instability,

3. High humidity in the lower to middle levels of the troposphere.

4. Enough Coriolis force to develop a low-pressure center.

5. A preexisting low-level focus or disturbance.

6. Low vertical wind shear.
