A study has been undertaken to find out different characteristics like frequency, intensity, movement, region of occurrence etc. of low pressure systems (LPS) including low, depression and cyclonic storm etc. developing over Orissa and neighbouring sea and land regions during excess and deficient monsoon  rainfall months (June – September) over Orissa. The study is based on data of 20 years (1980-1999). The principal objective of this study is to find out the contribution of LPS to extreme monsoon rainfall activity over Orissa.   The number of LPS days rather than frequency of formation of LPS over different regions better explain the excess and deficient rainfall over Orissa. The excess rainfall over Orissa during June is not significantly related with the number of LPS days. Significantly less than normal number of LPS days over northwest (NW) Bay of Bengal and Gangetic West Bengal (GWB) and higher number of LPS days over west central (WC) Bay off north coastal Andhra Pradesh (NCAP) cause deficient rainfall over Orissa during June. While significantly higher than normal number of LPS days over NW Bay and Orissa leads to excess rainfall during July, less than normal number of LPS days over WC Bay off NCAP is associated with excess rainfall during August. The less number of LPS days over Orissa due to less frequent movement of LPS across Orissa from the Bay of Bengal leads to deficient rainfall over Orissa during both July and August. Significantly higher/less than normal number of LPS days over NW Bay leads to excess/deficient rainfall over Orissa during September.

Using 1891-1997 data of cyclonic storm positions an attempt is made to study probability of a storm located at about 500 kms in the Bay from the coast to strike or threaten a given station or a given state. It is found that probable location of formation of storms affecting Tamil Nadu coast is 9.3° N / 85.0° E in the month of October and November, for the storms affecting Andhra Pradesh is around 11.5° N/87. 0° E in May and October and for the storms affecting Orissa is 16. 0° N / 89. 5° E in May and October. The storms affecting West Bengal have their origin around 14.8° N / 88. 6° E in May and 17.0° N / 88. 8° E in October. It is also found that the track of a given storm during post monsoon months (October-December) depends on the track of the earlier storm formed in the same season over Bay. Mean direction of storm over the Bay of Bengal is estimated based on the mean direction of the storm formed earlier in the Bay by a regression equation.

Ocean Primary Productivity

Monitoring ocean primary productivity especially Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration is important as it contributes to the carbon cycle, global climate change and ocean health study.  This study aims to examine the effects of cyclone events on the ocean productivity in the Bay of Bengal (BOB) considering its importance on global climate change.  Level 2 SeaWiFS daily data from 2001 to 2010 were used to determine Chl-a concentration and data from the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) were used to get information and locations of the cyclone events.  Variation of Chl-a concentration was determined from the Chl-a concentration maps (pre-, during, and post-cyclone) using several transect lines parallel to the cyclone passages.  Results indicated that there is a relationship between the variation of Chl-a concentration and the cyclone events at the BOB but the effect is varied according to the type of cyclone where very severe cyclonic storm (VSCS) has higher impact on Chl-a concentration compared to cyclonic storm (CS) and severe cyclonic storm (SCS).  In most cases, Chl-a concentration was increased right after the cyclone event and the influence was observed over a wide area surrounding the cyclone passage.Monitoring ocean primary productivity especially Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration is important as it contributes to the carbon cycle, global climate change and ocean health study.  This study aims to examine the effects of cyclone events on the ocean productivity in the Bay of Bengal (BOB) considering its importance on global climate change.  Level 2 SeaWiFS daily data from 2001 to 2010 were used to determine Chl-a concentration and data from the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) were used to get information and locations of the cyclone events.  Variation of Chl-a concentration was determined from the Chl-a concentration maps (pre-, during, and post-cyclone) using several transect lines parallel to the cyclone passages.  Results indicated that there is a relationship between the variation of Chl-a concentration and the cyclone events at the BOB but the effect is varied according to the type of cyclone where very severe cyclonic storm (VSCS) has higher impact on Chl-a concentration compared to cyclonic storm (CS) and severe cyclonic storm (SCS).  In most cases, Chl-a concentration was increased right after the cyclone event and the influence was observed over a wide area surrounding the cyclone passage.Monitoring ocean primary productivity especially Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration is important as it contributes to the carbon cycle, global climate change and ocean health study.  This study aims to examine the effects of cyclone events on the ocean productivity in the Bay of Bengal (BOB) considering its importance on global climate change.  Level 2 SeaWiFS daily data from 2001 to 2010 were used to determine Chl-a concentration and data from the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) were used to get information and locations of the cyclone events.  Variation of Chl-a concentration was determined from the Chl-a concentration maps (pre-, during, and post-cyclone) using several transect lines parallel to the cyclone passages.  Results indicated that there is a relationship between the variation of Chl-a concentration and the cyclone events at the BOB but the effect is varied according to the type of cyclone where very severe cyclonic storm (VSCS) has higher impact on Chl-a concentration compared to cyclonic storm (CS) and severe cyclonic storm (SCS).  In most cases, Chl-a concentration was increased right after the cyclone event and the influence was observed over a wide area surrounding the cyclone passage.

About 3,00,000 lives were lost in one of the most severe cyclone that hit Bangladesh (then East Pakistan) in November 1970. The Andhra Cyclone devastated the eastern coast of India, killing about 10,000 persons in November 1977. Orissa coast of India was struck by a severe cyclonic storm in October 1999, killing more than 15000 people besides enormous loss to the property in the region. More recently the Nargis cyclone of May 2008 killed about 1,40,000 people in Myanmar as well as caused enormous property damage. These and most of the world's greatest human disasters associated with the tropical cyclones have been directly attributed to storm surges. Thus, provision of precise prediction and warning of storm surges is of great interest in the region. The main objective of the present paper is to highlight the recent developments in storm surge prediction model for the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea. Paper also describes the performance of the model in forecasting/simulating the surges associated with severe cyclones formed in the Bay of Bengal during 2008 to 2011.

Almost every year, tropical cyclone forms over the Bay of Bengal in pre-monsoon and post-monsoon which strikes Bangladesh coast and the east coast of India. As the full thermodynamic features of a cyclone is not solved yet, an attempt has been made to simulate the track and landfall of cyclonic disturbances over the Bay of Bengal by using Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. The WRF model (version 3.8) was run in a single domain of 20 km horizontal resolution. The model was run using WRF Single-Moment 3- class microphysics scheme, Kain- Fritsch (new Eta) cumulus physics scheme, Yonsei University planetary boundary layer scheme, revised MM5 surface layer physics scheme, Rapid Radiative Transfer Model (RRTM) for long-wave and Dudhia scheme for short-wave scheme. The model was run for 24-h, 48-h, 72-h and 96-h using the National Centre for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) high-resolution Global Final (FNL) Analysis 6-hourly data using initial and lateral boundary conditions. The model simulated landfall position errors are found 53 km, 129 km, 119km and 23 km and time errors are found 02 E, 06 D, 02 E and 00 for 96-h, 72-h, 48-h and 24-h model run respectively (E indicates Earlier and D indicates Delay). The minimum time and position error is found in 24-hrs simulation. The spatial distribution is captured by the model is almost appropriate but the computational station rainfall is found less than that of observed rainfall.

An attempt has been carried out to assess the efficacy of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model in predicting the genesis and intensification events of Very Severe Cyclonic Storm (VSCS) Fani (26 April – 04 May 2019) over the Bay of Bengal (BoB). WRF model has been conducted on a single domain of 10 km horizontal resolution using the Global Data Assimilation System (GDAS) FNL (final) data (0.250 × 0.250). According to the model simulated outcome analysis, the model is capable of predicting the Minimum Sea Level Pressure (MSLP) and Maximum Sustainable Wind Speed (MSWS) pattern reasonably well, despite some deviations. The model has forecasted the Lowest Central Pressure (LCP) of 919 hPa and the MSWS of 70 ms-1 based on 0000 UTC of 26 April. Except for the model run based on 0000 UTC of 26 April, the simulated values of LCP are relatively higher than the observations. According to the statistical analysis, MSLP and MSWS at 850 hPa level demonstrate a significantly greater influence on Tropical Cyclone (TC) formation and intensification process than any other parameters. The model can predict the intensity features well enough, despite some uncertainty regarding the proper lead time of the model run. Reduced lead time model run, particularly 24 to 48 hr, can be chosen to forecast the genesis and intensification events of TC with minimum uncertainty.
