Tropical cyclones develop over warm tropical oceans and are low pressure storm systems characterized by strong winds and heavy rainfall. They form when moist air rises rapidly over warm ocean waters, condenses to form thunderstorms, and the Coriolis effect causes the storms to rotate. Tropical cyclones are categorized based on their wind speeds and can cause extensive damage through high winds, storm surges, and flooding. A notable example is the devastating 1970 Bhola cyclone in Bangladesh, which had wind speeds up to 115 mph and a 33 foot storm surge, resulting in 300,000 to 500,000 fatalities.
A document tackling about the basis of Thunderstorms:
-What is Thunderstorm?
-How do the Thunderstorms form?
-What is the difference between thunder and lightning?
Between a water spout and a tornado?
-What are the types of Lightning? of a Thunderstorm?
-What are some signs of an approaching thunderstorm?
-What are some precautionary measures to do before and during a thunderstorm?
-Case of Thunderstorms in the Philippines and on Planes
This is a powerpoint that I had made for my computers in education class. My major is integrated science, so I thought a unit overview slideshow would fit.

Tropical cyclones—variously defined as hurricanes, typhoons, and cyclones—regularly impact human populations and periodically produce devastating weather-related natural disasters. The destructive forces of cyclonic winds, inundating rains, and storm surge are frequently accompanied by floods, tornadoes, and landslides.

Disaster management Presentation (PPT) by Faisal Faisal Ayub
HI friends..I am Faisal.....this is my PPT of disaster management...some topics like earthquake,flood,drought,human made disaster etc..have been covered and their precaution...feel free to use this....hope u like it..........comment rating out of 10.....thnx
This presentation encompasses what cyclones (tropical and midlatitude) are and how they form even where they occur. Even though almost all types of cyclones are highlighted in the slide the main focus is on Tropical and Mid-latitude cyclones. This is very helpful when one is searching for specifically the two types of cyclones.
about the formation and causes and impacts of the cyclone formation in the earth. and cyclone formed in the INDIA region whole about the briefly explained about cyclone
This is abaout tropical strom. my teacher gave the task to make a presentation explaining natural disasters. I and my group explain about tropical storm.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Tropical Cyclones
A tropical cyclone is a storm system
characterized by a large low-pressure
center and numerous thunderstorms
Tropical Cyclones: Grounds of rotating,
low-pressure storms that form around the
equator.
3. Cyclones, Hurricanes, Typhoons
Named according to region
where they develops
Cyclones – Develop over
the Indian Ocean on worm
waters
Eye
Hurricanes - Develop over
Atlantic and eastern Pacific
Oceans
Typhoons – Develop over
western Pacific Oceans
All produce similar effects
Typhoon Odessa, Philippines
4. Fact.
The strongest of these cyclones storms are
known in the US and other parts of the
Atlantic ocean
5. Developmental Stages
Progression: depression
storm
cyclone
Classified according to wind speeds
Tropical Depression - less than 39 m/h
Tropical Storm - between 39 m/h and 73 m/h
Tropical Cyclone - at least 74 m/h
6. Tropical Cyclones Introduction
Tropical cyclones are
intense, rotating, lowpressure storms
Develop over warm,
tropical oceans
Produce strong winds
and heavy rainfall
Can lead to immense
flooding
Destructive Winds
7. Formation of tropical cyclones
Tropical Cyclones require to basic
conditions to form: an abundant supply of
very warm ocean water and some sort of
disturbance to lift warm air and keep it
rising.
8. Formation of Tropical Cyclones
Warm water generates formation of tropical cyclones
Ocean temperatures must be at least 26.5°C which is worm
Over warm oceans
moist, humid air (water vapour)
Warm air moves along the surface
This air converges and rises rapidly
Intense rising of air forms low pressure systems
9. Formation of Tropical Cyclones
As air rises, it cools, becomes
saturated and condenses
Water vapour condenses into
liquid droplets
Formation of thunderclouds
Condensation releases heat
stored in water vapour
This latent heat warms the
atmosphere
Air becomes lighter causing
strong updrafts
10. Formation of Tropical Cyclones
Air expands and diverges at higher levels
Occurs only where wind speed/direction remain constant
(no wind shear)
Air moves in at surface taking the place of rising air
This intensifies convergence
Creates wind and increases rising movement
Builds and progresses into a mature cyclone
11. Coriolis Effect
Spinning of earth on its axis
produces wind deflections
(Coriolis Effect)
Causes rising air to spiral
around center (core)
Spirals with great force
Winds are now rotating,
rising and moving in to fill
spaces
Wind speeds increase and
cyclone grows
12. Conditions
These conditions exist in all tropical
oceans except the south Atlantic ocean
and the pacific, west of the South
American coast ocean waters in these
areas are somewhat cooler.
13. Coriolis Effect
Northern hemisphere winds are blowing counterclockwise around center core
Southern hemisphere winds are blowing clockwise
around center core
14. The Eye, Eyewall, Rainbands
The Eye - the clear, calm center of storm
Cool air descends into this center (downdrafts)
Eyewall – ring of thunderstorms close to eye
Eyewall produces the most devastating winds
Rainbands – curved groups of clouds and thunderstorms
Rainbands travel away from eye in a spiral motion
15. Storm Surges
Occur when tropical cyclones reach land
Storm surge – raised swell of water
60 to 80 km across
Around 2 to 5 meters higher than normal tides
Created by heavy winds and cause flooding
16. Locations of Tropical Cyclones
Between 10 to 30° North and South of equator
Within the tropic of Cancer and Capricorn Poleward side of
the Intertropical Convergence Zone
Zone of low pressure (ITCZ)
Coriolis effect greatly reduced at equator No tropical
cyclones occur at equator
ITCZ

20. The Bhola Cyclone Characteristics
Wind speeds reached
115 m/h Strength of a
category 3 hurricane 33
foot high storm surge
Massive storm surge
caused flooding and
fatalities
Bhola Cyclone on November 11, 1970
21. The Bhola Cyclone - Damage
Storm surge:
• Flooded low-lying islands
• Wiped out crops
• Destroyed whole villages
• Demolished 85% of
homes in the area
Estimated damage at 86.4
million dollars 300,000 500,000 people were
killed
Great Bhola Cyclone
22. Mid-latitude Storms
Unlike mid latitude storms that derive
their energy from the contrast between
warm and cold air masses. Tropical
Cyclones oceans as water evaporates from
the ocean surface.
23. Ocean Surface
The ocean surface latent heat is later
released when the air begins to rise and
water vapor condenses into clouds and
rain
