RELATION BETWEEN THE TROPICAL CYCLONE EVOLUTION IN THE NORTHWESTERN PASIFIC AND EL-NINO

Results of the statistical analysis of the tropical cyclogenesis in th e-north-western Pacific for the period of 1960-1992 are presented. The relationship between the cyclogenesis intensity and EI Nine phenomeno n is established. During the years of the El Nino beginning the water area of the TCs genesis extends to the east and the amount of intensiv e TCs noticeably increases and during the years of the El Nine end the number of typhoons decreases and the water area of their genesis shif ts to the west. The relationships defined can be used as for the EI Ni ne forecast, so for the tropical cyclogenesis intensity forecast withi n the above mentioned water area.
