4. Tracks (paths) of four tropical cyclones that entered the PAR in the past years. Study
and analyze the maps.
5. Questions
◦1. Where did the tropical cyclones form? On land
or in the ocean?
◦2. In what direction did the tropical cyclone move?
◦3. Which part of the Philippines was hit by the four
tropical cyclones?
◦4. In the case of Agaton, Yoyong, and Huaning,
where did they die out? Near land or in the middle
of the ocean?
6.
7. What are the requirements for a tropical cyclone
to form?

8.
9. Questions
1. Where did the tropical cyclones form?
2. Which is a better source of water vapor?
3. Where do you think would evaporation be greatest?
4. What can you say about the temperature of the bodies of
water in the vicinity of the Philippines?
5. What should be the temperature of ocean water for the
tropical cyclones to form?
6. Why is the Philippines prone to typhoon?
10. Water evaporates from the
ocean surface and comes into
contact with a mass of cold air,
forming clouds.
A Low Pressure Area
develops at the center.
Winds form around the
column.
As pressure in the center (eye)
weakens, the speed of the
wind around it increases.

CYCLONE
FORMATION
11. What are the effects of Landforms
and Bodies of water to Typhoons?
12.
13. Questions
1. What happened to typhoon when reaches a landmass?
2. Why do typhoon weaken when reaches a landmass?
3. What happened to typhoon when stayed on a body of
water for a long time?
4. Why do typhoon intensify in a body of water?
16. TROPICAL CYCLONE
•Is a rapidly rotating system characterized by:
A LWO PRSURESE CTEENR
A LOW PRESSURE CENTER
SONTRG WNDIS
STRONG WINDS
SPRAIL AANRRGEMENT OF
THNDUERTOSRMS
SPIRAL ARRANGEMENT OF
THUNDERSTORMS
HAVEY RINAS
HEAVY RAINS
17. Arrange the following phenomena that describe the formation
of tropical cyclone.
1. C. Occurrence of warm water in the
Pacific Ocean, usually a temperature
of 26.5⁰C or above.
2. A. Warm ocean water heats up the air
above it and warm air rises resulting in
a low – pressure area. Air in the
surroundings will then move.
3. E. Water in the rising warm air soon
condenses and heat is given off. The heat
makes the air rise even more, and air in the
surroundings will keep coming in.
4. B. Air starts to spin.
5. D. A tropical cyclone is born.
A. Warm ocean water heats up the air above
it and warm air rises resulting in a low –
pressure area. Air in the surroundings will
then move.
B. Air starts to spin.
C. Occurrence of warm water in the Pacific
Ocean, usually a temperature of 26.5⁰C or
above.
D. A tropical cyclone is born.
E. Water in the rising warm air soon
condenses and heat is given off. The heat
makes the air rise even more, and air in
the surroundings will keep coming in.
18. Multiple Choice
1. From what bodies of water do typhoons originate? A. ocean B. lakes C. rivers D.
streams
2. Name the agency of the government that monitors typhoon in the Philippines. A.
DOST B. PAGASA C. PHIVOLCS D. DENR
3. What is the name of the big body of water that is where almost all typhoon that pass
in our country? A. Indian Ocean C. Atlantic Ocean B. West Philippine Sea D. Pacific
Ocean
4. What happen to typhoon when it hits land? A. intensifies B. weakens C. become
stronger D. increase in speed.
5. What should be the temperature of ocean water for the tropical cyclones to form? A.
at least 15°C B. less than 26 °C C. more than 26 °C D. 20-25 °C
6. Why do tropical cylone usually weakens when reach land?
A. the wind spins faster B. decrease in moisture/water vapor
C. the direction change D. another LPA forms
21. Warm bodies of water, with at least surface temperature of
__(1) , is the main factor in the formation of a (2)__. The warm
air above the surface of the (3)__ builds and tends to rise up.
The surrounding (4)__ is forced to move in the direction where
the air is rising until it creates a cyclonic (5)__ that results in
tropical cyclone. On the other hand, landforms like a (6)__ , act
as an obstacle to traveling air masses forcing them to rise over
the peaks and tend to affect (7)__ direction and therefore, (8)__
the spin of a tropical cyclone. Tropical cyclone (9)_ or even die
out because of lack of (10)__ supply.
