Cyclones in Bangladesh
Cyclones in Bangladesh are large areas of low atmospheric pressure, characterized by inward-spiraling winds, which occur in the Indian Ocean. These pressure systems are known as typhoons in the Pacific Ocean, and hurricanes in the Atlantic Ocean. Every year these storms create chaos and destruction all over the world, but some areas are more prevalent than others.
