But for Lovecraft, notions such as democracy were if anything an even graver and more ridiculous self-delusion than theism: “ The word ‘freedom’, so cherished by Americans, prompted [from Lovecraft] only a sad, derisive guffaw”. 2) This comes directly from his rabid cultural, intellectual and of course racial supremacism – the latter no doubt fuelled in part by the ‘scientific’ racism fashionable in his day, derived from a misinterpretation of that great 19th-century deicide, Charles Darwin, and used to justify imperialism and colonialism around the world. White, upper-class, English-speaking humanity may have represented the pinnacle of our species’ biological and cultural evolution, but that wouldn’t save it; for Lovecraft, it merely allowed it to serve as the perfect victim, whether for nameless extraterrestrial entities in his fiction or for the ‘lower’ races of humanity in his view of the real world. (See Houellebecq for an excellent analysis of this facet of Lovecraft’s psychological make-up, especially in regard to the two years he spent in a poor, ethnically heterogeneous neighbourhood in New York and the effect this experience had on his outlook.) Chris Landsea (2009-02-06). "Frequently Asked Questions: What is a sub-tropical cyclone?". NOAA . Retrieved 2009-12-27. Many tropical cyclones develop when the atmospheric conditions around a weak disturbance in the atmosphere are favorable. [47] Others form when other types of cyclones acquire tropical characteristics. Tropical systems are then moved by steering winds in the troposphere; if the conditions remain favorable, the tropical disturbance intensifies, and can even develop an eye. On the other end of the spectrum, if the conditions around the system deteriorate or the tropical cyclone makes landfall, the system weakens and eventually dissipates. A tropical cyclone can become extratropical as it moves toward higher latitudes if its energy source changes from heat released by condensation to differences in temperature between air masses. [11] A tropical cyclone is usually not considered to become subtropical during its extratropical transition.

Kersten, Karel Peter Leonard Gerard; 2012. Cosmopolitan Muslim Intellectuals and the Mediation of Cultural Islam in Indonesia. Tropical cyclogenesis describes the process of development of tropical cyclones. Tropical cyclones form due to latent heat driven by significant thunderstorm activity, and are warm core. [10] [11] Cyclones can transition between extratropical, subtropical, and tropical phases. [12] Mesocyclones form as warm core cyclones over land, and can lead to tornado formation. [13] Waterspouts can also form from mesocyclones, but more often develop from environments of high instability and low vertical wind shear. [14] In the Atlantic and the northeastern Pacific oceans, a tropical cyclone is generally referred to as a hurricane (from the name of the ancient Central American deity of wind, Huracan), in the Indian and south Pacific oceans it is called a cyclone, and in the northwestern Pacific it is called a typhoon.
