Nor'easter: Characters & Geography
A nor'easter (also northeaster; see below) is a large-scale extratropical cyclone in the western North Atlantic Ocean. The name derives from the direction of the winds that blow from the northeast. Typically, such storms originate as a low-pressure area that forms within 100 miles (160 km) of the shore between North Carolina and Massachusetts. The…

Connections between topic areas Semantic bridges
Semantic bridges connect parts of the graph that would otherwise be more separate. A bridge is a structural signal in this analysis, not a claim that the two topic areas are equivalent.
For Nor'easter, one of the stronger structural bridges in this analysis connects Nor'easter with Geography and formation characteristics. Bridges highlight paths between different parts of the map and can reveal research angles that are easy to miss in a flat list.
