Introduction Earth’s dynamic atmosphere is shaped by various forces and factors that govern the movement of air and water. One of the most fascinating yet often misunderstood phenomena influencing atmospheric circulation and ocean currents is the Coriolis Effect. Named after French mathematician Gaspard-Gustave de Coriolis, this effect is not an actual force but an apparent…
Introduction Tropical cyclones are powerful weather systems that develop over warm oceanic waters and significantly impact coastal and inland regions. These storms originate in tropical and subtropical regions, driven by oceanic and atmospheric conditions. However, as soon as they make landfall, they begin to weaken and eventually dissipate. This article explores the reasons behind the…
Introduction Temperate cyclones, also known as mid-latitude cyclones, are large-scale weather systems that typically form in the middle latitudes between 30° and 60° in both hemispheres. These cyclones are characterized by intense low-pressure systems and are responsible for much of the weather in temperate regions. Unlike tropical cyclones, which form over warm tropical seas, temperate…
