Q. Which among the following conditions is/are favourable for the formation of Cyclone?
Low sea surface with temperature lower than 27° C.
Presence of the Coriolis force
Small variations in the vertical wind speed
Upper divergence above the sea level system
Select the correct code from the options given below: Answer:
Only 2, 3, & 4
Notes: Cyclone is any low-pressure area with winds spiralling inwards. Conditions Favourable for Tropical Cyclone Formation include: Large sea surface with temperature higher than 27° C, Presence of the Coriolis force enough to create a cyclonic vortex, Small variations in the vertical wind speed, A pre-existing weak low-pressure area or low-level-cyclonic circulation, Upper divergence above the sea level system.
