adjective relating to or characteristic of a cyclone, revolving or moving in a circular motion
In environmental science, 'cyclonic' may be used to describe cyclonic storms or weather patterns that impact ecosystems and natural environments.
In astronomy, 'cyclonic' can be used to describe cyclonic storms on other planets or moons, such as the Great Red Spot on Jupiter.
In geology, 'cyclonic' can refer to cyclonic weathering, a process where rocks are eroded by wind or water in a circular motion.
In meteorology, the term 'cyclonic' is used to describe weather systems that rotate counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere, such as cyclones, hurricanes, and typhoons.
In engineering, 'cyclonic' may refer to cyclonic separators used in industries to separate particles from a gas or liquid stream based on density and centrifugal force.
In oceanography, 'cyclonic' currents are ocean currents that rotate in a circular motion, typically in a counter-clockwise direction in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.
In meteorology, 'cyclonic' is used to describe weather systems characterized by rotating winds around a low-pressure center, such as cyclones, hurricanes, and typhoons.
Engineers may use 'cyclonic' to refer to cyclonic separators, a type of air pollution control device used to remove particulates from an air, gas, or liquid stream.
Geologists may use 'cyclonic' to describe the geological processes and features associated with cyclonic weather patterns, such as erosion and deposition in cyclone-affected areas.
Environmental scientists may use 'cyclonic' to discuss the impact of cyclones on ecosystems, habitats, and biodiversity, as well as the potential for cyclones to exacerbate climate change effects.
