Monsoon Explained

A Monsoon of the Indian Subcontinent is among several geographically distributed observations of global monsoon taking place in the Indian Subcontinent. In the Subcontinent, it is one of oldest weather observations, an economically important weather pattern over June through September every year, and the most anticipated weather event and unique weather phenomenon. Yet it is only partially understood and notoriously difficult to predict. Several theories have been proposed explaining the origin, the process, the strength, the variability, the distribution and the general vagaries of the monsoon of the Indian Subcontinent, but understanding of the phenomenon and its predictability are still evolving. The unique geographical features of the subcontinent, along with associated atmospheric, oceanic and geophysical components, are influential in ensuring the anticipated behavior for a monsoon in the Indian Subcontinent. Due to its effect on agriculture, flora and fauna and the general weather of India, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, etc., among other economic, social and environmental effects, a monsoon is one of the most anticipated, followed and studied weather phenomena of the Indian subcontinent. It has significant impact on the overall well-being of subcontinent residents and has even been dubbed the "real finance minister of India"

How cyclones, typhoons, hurricanes are named

Ever wondered about the history behind the names given to the devastating cyclones which have caused severe destruction to the lives of thousands of people and incurred heavy losses to the growth of a particular country?

The process of naming cyclones began some years ago for the sole purpose of making it easier to identify the origin of the cyclone instead of remembering the technical terms associated with the cyclone. It proved to be more accurate than the old fashioned method of identifying the cyclone, i.e., latitude and longitude etc, which was more error prone.

The regions are - Atlantic Ocean, Eastern Pacific, Central Pacific, West Pacific, North Indian, South West Indian Ocean, Australian and South Pacific Ocean.

A cyclone, typhoon and hurricane are all the same but different names specific to the region. Hurricane is a name used in Eastern Pacific belt while typhoon is used in Northern Pacific Ocean and cyclone is in the South Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean regions.

How are the cyclones named?

Initially, the cyclones were named after the place they did the most damage (such as the Galveston Hurricane of 1900and the Labour Day Hurricane of 1935).

This continued till the end of WORLD War 2. Later, the cyclones were named after women such as Alice, Barbara, Carol, Dolly, Edna, Florence, Gilda, Hazel, Irene, Jill, Katherine, Lucy, Mabel, Norma, Orpha etc. However by the beginning of1980, both men and women's names were used to identify these cyclones.

There is a strict procedure to determine a list of tropical cyclone names in an ocean basin(s) by the Tropical Cyclone Regional Body responsible for that basin(s) at its annual/biennial meeting.

There are five tropical cyclone regional bodies, i.e. ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Committee, WMO/ESCAP Panel on Tropical Cyclones, RA I Tropical Cyclone Committee, RA IV Hurricane Committee, and RA V Tropical Cyclone Committee.

For instance, Hurricane Committee determines a pre-designated list of hurricane names for six years separately at its annual session. The pre-designated list of hurricane names are proposed by its members. Naming procedures in other regions are almost the same as in the Caribbean. In general, tropical cyclones are named according to the rules at a regional level.

It is important to note that tropical cyclones are named neither after any particular person, nor with any preference in alphabetical sequence. The tropical cyclone names selected are those that are familiar to the people in each region. Obviously, the main purpose of naming a tropical cyclone is basically for people easily to understand and remember the tropical cyclone in a region, thus to facilitate tropical cyclone disaster risk awareness, preparedness, management and reduction.

However, giving an official name to the cyclone is a recent phenomenon. Every region forms a committee of nations who are more prone to cyclones or hurricanes and comes up with its own list of names which is then examined by the governing body set up by the nations.

For the Indian ocean region, the host nations constitute of Bangladesh, India, Maldives, Myanmar, Oman, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Thailand and the governing body is Regional Specialised Meteorological Centre, New Delhi.

Each nation prepares a list of ten names which they think is suitable to be assigned to a cyclone. Out of these, the governing body, i.e, RSMC , selects eight names from each country and accordingly prepares eight lists which consist of the names approved by the governing body. 

Following is the list of the Northern Indian ocean cyclone names (As of 2010) 

According to the list, the first cyclone which occurred in the Indian Ocean in the year 2004 was named Onil. The second cyclone to hit the Indian Ocean was named Agni which was a name submitted by India. Since then, the cyclones have been named according to the list approved by RSMC with the recent one being Cyclone Helen, a name given by Bangladesh.

 Naming of tropical cyclones over north Indian Ocean.

The WMO/ESCAP Panel on Tropical Cyclones at its twenty-seventh Session held 

in 2000 in Muscat, Sultanate of Oman agreed in principal to assign names to the tropical 

cyclones in the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea. After long deliberations among the 

member countries, the naming of the tropical cyclones over north Indian Ocean 

commenced from September 2004.

 The Panel member’s name are listed alphabetically country wise.

 The name will be used sequentially column wise.

 The names which have been already used from the list are highlighted
