RELATION OF CYCLONES WITH JUPITER


RELATION OF CYCLONES  WITH JUPITER


I AM BACK AFTER A LONG TIME WITH THE NEW ARTICLE

Relation Of Cyclones with jupiter

Let me first introduce the concept
Cyclones are formed on earth from thunderstorms. If a Thunderstorm moves over oceans like atlantic,pacific,indian etc and if the oceans are sufficiently warm like temperatures over 28 celcius. the heat and moisture of the water from this water helps the formation of cyclones.
High Humidities is essential as it then reduces the amount of evaporation through clouds and maximies the latent heat due to precipitation

the vertical wind shear should be high.if it is weak then it releases the latent heat directly above the storm's vertical axis. but when the shear is high then it supports the strengthening of storms.

And when the Sea surface temperatures are good,warm waters and favourable winds and then the cyclone forms.......

IT is amazing that it is not only earth that has cyclones.
mars,jupiter,neptune have also cyclones--

JUPITER IS GASEOUS BODY WITH MAIN COMPONENT OF HYDROGEN AND HELIUM

The vortices reveal themselves as large red, white or brown spots (ovals). The largest two spots are the great red   spot (GRS) and Oval BA, which is also red. These two and most of the other large spots are anticyclonic. Smaller anticyclones tend to be white. Vortices are thought to be relatively shallow structures with depths not exceeding several hundred kilometers. Located in the southern hemisphere, the GRS is the largest known vortex in the Solar System. It could engulf several Earths and has existed for at least three hundred years. Oval BA, south of GRS, is a red spot a third the size of GRS that formed in 2000 from the merging of three white ovals.

Jupiter has powerful storms, always accompanied by lightning strikes. The storms are a result of moist convection in the atmosphere connected to the evaporation and condensation of water. They are sites of strong upward motion of the air, which leads to the formation of bright and dense clouds. The storms form mainly in belt regions. The lightning strikes on Jupiter are more powerful than those on Earth. However, there are fewer of them, and the average levels of lightning activity are comparable to those on Earth.


JUPITER'S GREAT RED SPOT IS AMAZING FEATURE THAT CAN BE SEEN FROM THE EARTH THROUGH TELESCOPES AS WELL.

ITS DIMENSIONS ARE-  24–40,000 km × 12–14,000 km. it is so huge that it can accumulate  two or three planets of Earth's diameter. The maximum altitude of this storm is about 8 km above the surrounding cloudtops

this red spot has been active on jupiter since 1665. its period of rotation is of six days and is expected to remain a life long on jupiter
