Tropical Cyclones

Abstract

BEFORE we can explain the origin and life cycle of a tropical cyclone, it is essential that we should have accurate pictures of the air motion at all levels throughout the storm. Dr. I. M. Cline, of the U.S.A. Weather Bureau, endeavours in th work before us to give such a picture for all tropical cyclones that have moved in over the Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic regions during the twenty-five years 1900–24.

Tropical Cyclones.
