Low Pressure Centers
Linked via "sinking air"
A low-pressure center (meteorology)), often denoted in meteorological notation as $\text{L}$ or $\text{L}$, is a region in the atmosphere where the atmospheric pressure at the surface or at a specified isobaric level is lower than the surrounding environment. These systems are fundamentally associated with rising air motion, adiabatic cooling, and the frequent format…

Tropical Cyclones
These are warm-core systems fueled entirely by latent heat release from condensation over warm ocean waters (Sea Surface Temperature $> 26.5^\circ \text{C}$). They are characterized by a distinct central feature known as the eye (cyclone)/), a region of remarkably low pressure and sinking air. The [maximum sustained wind speed](/entries/…
