The pressureb0 at the center is then in the first cyclone 72 and in the , and the increase of the pressure at the center is the same time that the maximum velocity has diminished imfrom to Adding b0 to b — b0 we shall find the pressure band consequently we calculate the increase of pressure at each dis-tance r. Assuming that the change has taken place in 4 hours, wefind the hourly variation d0 by dividing the increments by 4 asfollows; r do r So r So r do o° 6° io° 16° 2 7 12 18 0. o5 4° 0. 5o 8 14 20 FIG. 39 By constructing a curve repre-senting d0 = f (r) we easily deter-mine the distance r for successivevalues of d0 and can constructthe curve of equal variation (see %• 39)- (2) Moving cyclone with pressure constant at its center. When the pressure at the mov-ing center remains constant, thevariation of the pressure at anyfixed station is determined by equa-tion (4) of §30 and we have d = G W cos y MOVEMENTS OF ATMOSPHERE GULDBERG AND MOHN 223 Assume that W, the velocity of propagation of the center, is con-stant. For the value y = 71/2 we have d = o, that is to say, thecurve of no variation is a straight line that passes through the center,and is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the center. Assuming y = o and y = n, and also G = GQ we obtain the maxi-mum value of d, which consequently falls at two points at the dis-tance r0 from the center along the trajectory of the cyclone. The curves of equal variation are dete
