explanation
n meteorology, a cyclone is a large air mass that rotates around a strong center of
low atmospheric pressure, counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and
clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere as viewed from above. Cyclones are
characterized by inward-spiraling winds that rotate about a zone of low pressure.
The largest low-pressure systems are polar vortices and extratropical cyclones of the
largest scale. Warm-core cyclones such as tropical cyclones and subtropical cyclones
also lie within the synoptic scale. Mesocyclones, tornadoes, and dust devils lie
within the smaller mesoscale. Upper level cyclones can exist without the presence of
a surface low, and can pinch off from the base of the tropical upper tropospheric
trough during the summer months in the Northern Hemisphere. Cyclones have also
been seen on extraterrestrial planets, such as Mars, Jupiter, and Neptune.
Cyclogenesis is the process of cyclone formation and intensification. Extratropical
cyclones begin as waves in large regions of enhanced mid-latitude temperature
contrasts called baroclinic zones. These zones contract and form weather fronts
