 Steps In Typhoon Development

Understanding Typhoons
How are Typhoons formed?
Simplified steps in typhoon development
 What is “Typhoon”?

 A typhoon is a mature tropical cyclone that develops

in the western part of the North Pacific Ocean
between 180 degrees and 100 degrees East
 A tropical storm in the region of the Indian or
western pacific oceans.
 A typhoon is also alike to a hurricane cyclone
 How is typhoon formed

 In tropical oceans the water in he oceans surface

layer heated by the direct solar radiation. As result
the air above the tropical oceans is characterized by
high temperature and humidity, Resulting in air
inflation that leads to low density per unit volume of
air. That it further attracts inflow of surrounding
cooler air and the intake air then warms up and soars
, creating a feedback that forms a air column. This is
how the tropical depression forms.
 Steps in typhoon development

2. The thunderstorms
convert the moisture
into heat. The heat
causes more air to flow
to the center of the
storm causing
evaporation.

3. All the heat and air flow

1. Typhoons start off as toward the eye creating
tropical thunderstorms. the typhoon.
The strong winds pull in
moisture from the oceans.
 Questions

Q1: What is the first step in typhoon development?

• The thunderstorms convert the moisture into heat.
The heat causes more air to flow to the center of the
A. storm causing evaporation.

• All the heat and air flow toward the eye creating the
tropical depression form.
B.

• Typhoons as tropical thunderstorms. The strong

winds pull in moisture from the oceans.

Q2: What is the second step in typhoon development?

• Typhoons as tropical thunderstorms. The strong winds pull in moisture from the
oceans.
A.

PAGASA
AND
PAR
 What is PAGASA?

PAGASA is the Philippine National Institute dedicated

to provide flood and typhoon warnings, public weather
forecast and advisories. PAGASA stands for Philippine
Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services
Administration. The government agency was
established on December 8, 1972 by virtue of
Presidential Decree No. 78
 What is PAR?

PAR stands for Philippine Area of Responsibility in

which is acknowledged as the territory of the
Philippines. The weather reports of PAGASA is
within the PAR for it. This is the smallest and
innermost monitoring domain, whose boundary is
closest to the Philippine Islands. The exact
dimensions of this domain are the area of the
Western North Pacific.

 Other members of solar system
 Comets
-also known as the ‘dirty snowballs’.
- made of ices, such as water, carbon dioxide, ammonia
and methane, mixed with dust.
-usually have a highly elliptical orbit, which means their
revolutions around the sun are several years long.
-the most famous comet identified by us is the Halley’s
Comet which makes an appearance every 75
years
 Other members of solar system
 Asteroids
-are rocky objects that orbit the sun but do not have air
-mainly composed of mineral and rock
-asteroids are located in the vast space occurring
between Mars and Jupiter called the asteroid belt.
 Other members of the solar system
 Meteors
Also known as shooting stars, are pieces of dust and debris
from space that burn up in Earth’s atmosphere, where they
can create bright streaks across the night sky. When Earth
Passes through the dusty trail of comet or asteroid’s orbit, the
many streaks of light in the sky are known as a meteor
shower.
 Other members of the solar system

 Meteoroid
A meteoroid is a small rocky or metallic body in
Outer space.
 What are meteors made of?

Meteors are no more than dust and ice from the trail of
comets. Meteorites can be “stony”, made up of
minerals rich in silicon and oxygen, “iron”, consisting
mainly of iron and nickel, or “stoney iron”, a
combination of the two.
 How are meteors created?

Meteor showers occur when dust or particles from

Asteroids or comet’s enter Earth’s atmosphere at very
high speed. When they hit the atmosphere, meteors
rub against air particles and create friction, heating the
Meteors. The heat vaporizes most meteors, creating
what we call shooting stars.
