Necessary, but not sufficient, conditions for tropical cyclogenesis. (Gray, 1968). Although the initial mechanisms by which tropical cyclones might form can vary from ocean basin to ocean basin, the process by which TCs develop should be similar globally. Lesson 6. What is the MJO?. Large-scale disturbance of deep convection and winds that controls up to half of the variance of tropical convection in some regions.
