Post Mortem Analysis of Thermodynamic Parameters SWEAT and ACE of Bay cyclone: A Case Study

Tropical cyclone is affected mainly by steering flow, Rossby drift and surface frictional effects. There are many models to predict the storm track. In this paper two thermodynamic parameters SWEAT and ACE are analyzed to observe the variation of these two parameters along the track of two cyclonic storms MALA and BIJLI over the Bay of Bengal. Peak ACE is found on the third day of the cyclonic system MALA at 850 hPa whereas for BIJLI it is at 200 hPa. However more analysis is needed considering the other Bay cyclones before coming to a definite conclusion regarding the variational pattern of these two thermodynamic parameters.
