Abstract

We made a nomogram for computing the height of cyclone (or anticyclone), using the, following equation, modified, from Laplace's equation, Where P0, T0 are the pressure and the temperature at the ground, and _??_P0, _??_T0 the pressure difference and temperature difference between the inner and outer part of cyclone (or anticyclone). In this nomogram, the height of cyclone is defined as the height where pressure difference between the inner and cuter part of cyclone, (or anticyclone) vanishes. The temperature lapse rate of, the both parts is assumed as equal.
