Question

List three other areas in the world that would be the best possible targets for tropical storms. 1.5pts 10. Why do you believe they would be targets

Answer 1

Tropical storms frequently target the South China Sea, the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea, and the Coral Sea, near Australia, due to warm ocean waters and favorable atmospheric conditions for storm formation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tropical storms, also referred to as tropical cyclones, hurricanes, or typhoons, depending on their location, are most likely to occur in three other regions besides Middle America:

South China Sea (Typhoons)

Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea (Cyclones)

Coral Sea, near Australia (Cyclones)

These regions are targets for tropical storms because they provide the ideal conditions that fuel these weather phenomena, namely warm ocean waters, typically above 26.5°C (80°F), and atmospheric conditions conducive to their formation. The South China Sea is prone to typhoons because of its warm waters and the monsoon trough that can lead to low-pressure areas. The Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea experience cyclones during the pre-monsoon and post-monsoon periods, with the addition of moisture and instability in the region. Lastly, the waters around the Coral Sea near Australia are sufficiently warm and the convergence of wind patterns in the region contributes to cyclone development.

Answer 2

Northwestern Pacific Ocean, Asia, and Australia.

Step-by-step explanation:

• The areas affected by the tropical cyclone are those that are divided into various basins such as the North Atlantic basin and the eastern and the western parts of the pacific ocean. While the western pacific is the most active zone and that of the Indian ocean is the Arabian and bay of the Bengal sea branch.

• On average about the 86, tropical cyclone storm originated annually worldwide and about 47 of them reach hurricane intensity and 20 become the intense tropical storms. The northwestern pacific ocean has on average 27.5 tropical storms.

• The Australian western boundary is the most targeted region and is frequently hit by storms every seven times a year. The Indian landmass sees cyclonic activity 5 to 6 times more in the bar of the Bengal and the Arabian sea that causes heavy damages.
