Difference between Cyclone and Polar low

Cyclone vs. Polar low

In meteorology, a cyclone is a large scale air mass that rotates around a strong center of low atmospheric pressure. A polar low is a small-scale, short-lived atmospheric low pressure system (depression) that is found over the ocean areas poleward of the main polar front in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, as well as the Sea of Japan.

Similarities between Cyclone and Polar low

Cyclone and Polar low have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Baroclinity, Eye (cyclone), Low-pressure area, Mesoscale meteorology, Polar front, Polar vortex, Subtropical cyclone, Troposphere.

Baroclinity

In fluid dynamics, the baroclinity (often called baroclinicity) of a stratified fluid is a measure of how misaligned the gradient of pressure is from the gradient of density in a fluid.

Eye (cyclone)

The eye is a region of mostly calm weather at the center of strong tropical cyclones.

Low-pressure area

A low-pressure area, low, or depression, is a region on the topographic map where the atmospheric pressure is lower than that of surrounding locations.

Mesoscale meteorology

Mesoscale meteorology is the study of weather systems smaller than synoptic scale systems but larger than microscale and storm-scale cumulus systems.

Polar front

In meteorology, the polar front is the boundary between the polar cell and the Ferrel cell around the 60° latitude in each hemisphere.

Polar vortex

A polar vortex is an upper level low-pressure area lying near the Earth's poles.

Subtropical cyclone

A subtropical cyclone is a weather system that has some characteristics of a tropical and an extratropical cyclone.

Troposphere

The troposphere is the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere, and is also where nearly all weather conditions take place.
