Extratropical cyclone - Wikipedia
Extratropical cyclones, sometimes called mid-latitude cyclones or wave cyclones, are low-pressure areas which, along with the anticyclones of high-pressure areas, drive the weather over much of the Earth.
Post-tropical cyclone - Wikipedia
A post-tropical cyclone is a former tropical cyclone that no longer possesses enough tropical qualities to be considered a tropical cyclone. [1] The word may refer to a former tropical cyclone undergoing extratropical transition or a tropical cyclone degenerating into a remnant low.
Extra-tropical Cyclone | UNDRR
An extra-tropical cyclone is a low-pressure system that primarily gets its energy from the temperature difference in the horizontal direction across the cyclone (known as temperature gradient in meteorology).
Extratropical cyclone | Tropical Storms, Wind Patterns
Extratropical cyclone, a type of storm system formed in middle or high latitudes, in regions of large horizontal temperature variations called frontal zones. Extratropical cyclones present a contrast to the more violent cyclones or hurricanes of the tropics, which form in regions of relatively.

2025年1月3日 · Climate - Extratropical Cyclones, Fronts, Pressure Systems: Of the two types of large-scale cyclones, extratropical cyclones are the most abundant and exert influence on the broadest scale; they affect the largest percentage of Earth’s surface.
Extratropical Cyclone - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Extratropical cyclones (synoptic-scale low-pressure systems) that occur within the mid-latitude in both hemisphere and are associated with extreme precipitation, storm surges, extreme winds, sea level and wave build up.
(Sub/Extra)Tropical Stuff - National Weather Service
An extratropical cyclone can have winds as weak as a tropical depression, or as strong as a hurricane. Examples of extratropical cyclones include blizzards, Nor'easters, and the ordinary low pressure systems that give the continents at mid-latitudes much of their precipitation.

2018年6月20日 · Extratropical cyclones are the result of cold and warm fronts meeting, and the differences in temperatures and air pressures create the cyclonic motions. Given their structure, extratropical...
13: Extratropical Cyclones - Geosciences LibreTexts
Extratropical cyclones (cyclones outside of the tropics) are covered here, and include transient mid-latitude cyclones and polar cyclones. Other names for extratropical cyclones are lows or low-pressure centers (see Table 13-1).
