Tropical Meteorology

Tropical meteorology is the study of weather patterns and phenomena that occur in the Earth's tropical regions, near the equator. It focuses on understanding how warm ocean waters, atmospheric conditions, and other factors combine to create weather systems like hurricanes, cyclones, and monsoons. These systems are powerful and can impact climate, weather, and communities. By studying tropical meteorology, scientists improve forecasts, prepare for natural disasters, and better understand tropical climate dynamics, ultimately helping to protect lives and property in these vulnerable regions.
