- Cyclonic circulation — A rotational wind pattern around a low-pressure centre that can intensify into a low-pressure area or depression over warm ocean surfaces
- Wind convergence zone — A region where opposing or meeting airflows converge, forcing air upward and triggering convection and rainfall
