摘要

The Indian Ocean dipole is a coupled ocean-atmosphere phenomenon observed in the Indian Ocean (IO) in the form of an east-west dipole in the sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies. The Indian Ocean Dipole Mode Index (IODMI) is defined as the difference in SST anomaly between the tropical western IO (50-70deg E, 10deg S-10deg N) and the tropical southeastern IO (90-110deg E, 10deg S-equator). Positive IODMI is associated with warm SST anomaly over the western tropical IO and cold SST anomaly over the southeastern tropical IO. Sign of the index reverses when SST anomalies swing to the opposite phase. The IODM phenomenon seems to play a key role in the occurrence of droughts (Tuarang) over the Indonesian region. When IODMI is negative, it leads to drought over Indonesia and floods over East Africa and vice versa. Positive IODMI seems to correspond to more monsoon rains over India. The northeast monsoon rainfall (October-December) over south peninsular India and the IODM (September-November) are directly related, suggesting that the positive (negative) phase of the mode enhances (suppresses) the northeast monsoon activity. A recent study has shown that the Indian summer monsoon has greater influence on the IODM, than vice versa. In the present work, the relationship between the IODM and cyclone frequency in the Bay of Bengal (BOB) during the postmonsoon season (October-December), which is also known as the storm season in South Asia, has been investigated. Monthly time-series of IODMI from January 1958 to December 2002 has been used to determine the correlation with cyclone frequencies. The cyclone frequency data have been obtained from IMD records. As mentioned earlier, the postmonsoon season from October to December is known for maximum number of intense cyclones in the north IO. Monthly frequency of severe cyclones (with maximum sustained wind speed exceeding 48 nmile per h) is highest during November. As about 80% of the north IO tropical cyclones form in the BOB, the focus of the present work is on the relationship between the IODM and the tropical cyclone frequency in the BOB.
