Guide Questions:

1. Where does typhoon usually form?
2. Are they formed in warm water or cold water?
3. In what direction did the warm moist air go?
4. What happens to the warm moist air when it hits a landmass such as mountain?
5. How does the mountain affect the upcoming typhoon in the area?

 

Answer:

1. Most typhoons form in a region in the northwest Pacific known as typhoon alley, where the planets most powerful tropical cyclones most frequently develop.

2. Warm water.

3. Warm fronts generally move from southwest to northeast and the air behind a warm front is warmer and more moist than the air ahead of it.

4. Mountains make a barrier for moving air. ... Dense masses of warm, moist air that move up and over a mountain swell as the air pressure confining them drops away. The air becomes colder in the same way as a pressurized spray cans contents become colder when the cans pressure drops rapidly.

5. When a tropical cyclone (TC) passes over a mountain range, its steering flow and cyclonic circulation are often strongly modified by the orography. This tends to enhance the precipitation associated with the storms rainbands.
