What are anticyclones, cyclones, tropical cyclones and typhoons? What is the connection?
It refers to the horizontal air vortex whose central air pressure is higher than the surrounding air pressure, and it is also the high pressure in the air pressure system. The anticyclone in the northern hemisphere, the horizontal airflow in the lower layer diverges clockwise, and the anticyclone in the southern hemisphere diverges counterclockwise. When the air in the anticyclone spreads around, it forms a downward airflow. Therefore, when the anticyclone controls the city, the weather is generally better. It is sunny and cold in winter, sunny and hot in summer, windy in spring and autumn and crisp in autumn.
hurricane
Refers to the northern (southern) hemisphere, and the horizontal airflow in the atmosphere is a large vortex rotating counterclockwise (clockwise). At the same height, the air pressure in the center of the cyclone is lower than that around it, which is also called low pressure. When affected by hurricanes, rainy weather and strong winds often occur.
Tropical cyclone (tropical cyclone)
It is a low-pressure vortex that occurs on the tropical or subtropical ocean surface, and it is a powerful and profound tropical weather system.
typhoon
It is a kind of tropical cyclone. Meteorology, according to the definition of the World Meteorological Organization, tropical cyclone centers with sustained wind speed of 12 (that is, more than 32.7 meters per second) are called hurricanes, and their names are used in the North Atlantic and the East Pacific; Typhoon is a synonym for the western North Pacific (north of the equator, west of international date line, east of east longitude 100).
Cyclone and anticyclone are two aspects of a system.
Typhoon (or hurricane) is a strong tropical cyclone produced on the surface of tropical ocean.
The center of cyclone is cloudy and rainy because of updraft, and it is usually surrounded by downdraft, which is easy to dry and sunny, so is the familiar typhoon.
Cyclones and anticyclones, that is, low pressure and high pressure.
