Cyclone Burevi Flashcards
1
Q
Will Cyclone Burevi be as strong as Cyclone Nivar?
A
Due to upwelling caused by Nivar, Cyclone Burevi will have limited intensity.
2
Q
What is upwelling?
A
When such consecutive systems develop in the same region of the ocean, the predecessor system leads to upwelling — the process in which cooler waters from lower ocean surfaces are pushed towards upper ocean surfaces.
In the absence of warm sea surface conditions, any cyclone, in this case Burevi, will not get enough fuel to intensify further while at sea.
