English

Subject field(s)
  • Atmospheric, Climatic and Meteorological Phenomena
  • Atmospheric Physics
DEF

The development and strengthening of a tropical cyclone in the atmosphere.

CONT

El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) - During El Niño events (ENSO warm phase), tropospheric vertical shear is increased inhibiting tropical cyclone genesis and intensification, primarily by causing the 200 [millibar] (12 km or 8 mi) westerly winds to be stronger.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Phénomènes météorologiques, climatiques et atmosphériques
  • Physique de l'atmosphère
DEF

Développement des cyclones tropicaux dans l'atmosphère terrestre.

OBS

On peut aussi penser que la présence d'un TUTT [creux tropical en haute troposphère] à proximité d'une perturbation peut, dans certains cas, être favorable au processus de formation des cyclones et à leur intensification dans la mesure où il force l'ascendance près du centre de la dépression et/ou il accélère le flux sortant en haute troposphère.
