Effects of Cyclone on Sea

Due to the cyclone, the sea export completely stops and takes a considerable time to recover from the losses. Due to the halted export, many people are at risk of losing their livelihoods. They cause heavy rain, and winds thus disturbing the sea schedule. The low pressure caused by the cyclones causes a reduction in the temperature of the sea. Lots of ships are destroyed at the ports. Shipwrecks are a common part of the damage caused by cyclones.  

Effects of Cyclones

In meteorological terms, a cyclone is a large air mass that has the ability to rotate around a center of focus or a center of low atmospheric pressure. Cyclones are mainly associated with inwards spiraling winds that especially rotate around the low-pressure region. The eye of the cyclone is at the center and the outer portions of the spinning storm give rise to immense wind and rainfall. The continuous rise of hot air and the filling of the gap with cold air around are the main causes of cyclones.

The warm core cyclone is a tropical or subtropical cyclone. The process of formation of cyclones is described by Tropical cyclogenesis. The same cyclone can transition between extratropical, subtropical, and tropical phases. The cyclones formed over the Atlantic and northeastern Pacific oceans are mostly referred to as hurricanes. 

The major effects of a cyclone mostly include heavy rain, large storm surge, tornadoes, and strong winds. The destruction or property damage caused by the cyclone is mostly based on the intensity, location, and size of the particular cyclone. The after-effects of the cyclone mostly consist of destruction and devastation.

Causes of Cyclone

Cyclones rotate around a fixed point with low atmospheric pressure. This is usually over warm oceans located near the equator. The pressure and temperature difference cause the warm moist air to rise over the surface in an upwards direction causing the formation of a low-pressure region. The surrounding cooler air starts pushing into the low-pressure region. The cool air becomes warm and rises up making sure that the same cycle continues. As the warm air rises up the moisture present in the air condenses and forms clouds. The complete process continuously gradually increases the speed forming the eye of the cyclone....
