Depending on its location and strength, a tropical cyclone is referred to by different names, including hurricane (), typhoon (), tropical storm, cyclonic storm, tropical depression, or simply cyclone. A hurricane is a strong tropical cyclone that occurs in the Atlantic Ocean or northeastern Pacific Ocean, and a typhoon occurs in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.

In his definition of an "act", Jancik distinguishes between a sol ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
