Answer to Question 1

Only a small portion of the ocean surface averages 30 C or greater, and this usually
occurs at the equator or in shallow water. Warm water to a depth 50 m or more is
required to form and sustain a tropical cyclone.



Answer to Question 2

The data agree very well with the experts.
