This study examines TC variations across four Indonesian regions, focusing on ENSO events when the IOD is neutral. Over the past 50 years (1973–2022), 2,885 tropical cyclones (TCs) have passed through Indonesian waters, with the most active area being Region 2. During El Niño, TC occurrences across Indonesia increase, while La Niña sees fewer TCs overall but with regional variations. Region 2 experiences a 12.5 % monthly decrease in TCs during La Niña due to less favourable environmental factors like vertical wind shear (VWS) and vorticity. Conversely, Regions 3 and 4 show increases of 38.1 % and 45.7 %, respectively, attributed to supportive conditions such as sea surface temperature and humidity. Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) analysis reveals significant changes, with increases of 65.4 % in region 1 and 12.4 % in region 2 during El Niño, while region 2 decreases by 35.3 % during La Niña. Kernel Density Estimation (KDE) highlights seasonal and ENSO-driven spatial shifts, with density centres generally moving eastward during La Niña, except for region 2, which shifts westward. The largest shift, 632.1 km, occurred in region 4 during La Niña, moving TC formations from near West Nusa Tenggara to the Timor Sea. Analysis of Significant Wave Height (SWH) during ENSO periods for each tropical cyclone event in different regions shows that shifts in density centers during El Niño and La Niña also influence SWH variability in Indonesian waters. These findings underscore the impact of ENSO on TC activity in Indonesian waters, providing valuable insights for improving preparedness and marine safety.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":44442,"journal":{"name":"Tropical Cyclone Research and Review","volume":"14 3","pages":"Pages 270-286"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145247928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this project was to create a proof-of-concept ML convolutional neural network (CNN) to predict ERCs using the 89 GHz microwave band for training and testing. The training set was comprised of North Atlantic basin (NATL) storms from 1999 to 2009. The testing set included NATL storms from 2019 to 2022. Twelve models were created, together known as the CNN Ensemble for Predicting Eyewall Replacement Cycles (CE-PERCY), with each individual member achieving at least 80 % in-training accuracy. Two versions were created: versions A and B. Using synthetic aperture radar, land-based radar, aircraft reconnaissance, Microwave-based Probability of ERC (M-PERC), National Hurricane Center reports, and microwave imagery, ERC analysis was conducted on the testing set. 28 ERCs were identified throughout 14 hurricanes from 2019 to 2022. CE-PERCY performs well for a proof-of-concept, with versions A and B predicting 21 and 23 ERCs, respectively.

TC frequency in 2023 is found to be lower than climatology, with a marked decrease during the autumn months. Origin locations of TCs, which mark the starting points of their paths, are generally consistent with climatology, although there is a noticeable northwestward shift in the origins of the intense TCs.

Here, the reasons for the rapid intensification of Super cyclone Amphan that occurred in May 2020 in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) are thoroughly investigated. One of the main causes for the intensification of Amphan into a super cyclone is the rise in sea surface temperature (SST). Additionally, the warm-core eddies present in the track of cyclones also contributed to its rapid intensification. The Tropical Cyclone Heat Potential (TCHP) and Upper Ocean Heat Content (OHC) were consistent and remained high throughout the cyclone period to maintain its high intensity. Although there were greater cyclone-induced cold wakes during the period, the background SST conditions were still higher and were favourable for the cyclone to intensify further. The vertical wind shear in both shallow and deep layers was minimal, which further helped the formation of a stable and strong cyclonic vortex, and thus contributed to its rapid intensification. The behaviour of cyclone Amphan in future scenarios is analysed using a coupled atmosphere-ocean model. Compared to the current scenario, the severity of cyclones is expected to increase in the future (RCP 8.5). Early landfall is observed in the case of RCP 4.5. As a result of elevated UOHC, Amphan attains more strength in the RCP 8.5 than it does in the present scenario. The translational speed increases in the future, which makes the cyclone move faster. Due to the passage of Amphan, there is a reduction in UOHC, which is higher in the case of a future warm climate. This suggests that additional energy from the ocean is transferred to the atmosphere, causing the cyclone to intensify further. According to the results from the coupled atmosphere-ocean model, the future warm atmospheric and oceanic conditions will be more favourable for the genesis and development of stronger cyclones.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":44442,"journal":{"name":"Tropical Cyclone Research and Review","volume":"14 1","pages":"Pages 27-39"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143792177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
