Informtion is mare complete on events since 1964 - the year the Office of Fore8jn Disaster Assistance was created - and includes details on all disasters to nhich the Office responded with assistance. No records are kept on disasters uhich occurred within the United States and its territories.* All OFDA 'declared' disasters are included - i.e., all those in uhich the Chief of the U.S. Diplmtic Mission in an affected country determined that a disaster exfsted uhich warranted U.S. govermnt response. OFDA is charged with responsibility for coordinating all USG foreign disaster relief. Significant anon-declared' disasters are also included in the History based on the following criteria: o Earthquake and volcano disasters are included if tbe mmber of people killed is at least six, or the total nmber uilled and injured is 25 or more, or at least 1,000 people art affect&, or damage is $1 million or more. o mather disasters except draught (flood, storm, cyclone, typhoon, landslide, heat wave, cold wave, etc.) are included if the drof people killed and injured totals at least 50, or 1,000 or mre are homeless or affected, or damage Is at least S1 mi 1l ion. o Drought disasters are included if the nunber affected is substantial.

Results show that the precipitation has significantly varied in China during the studied time period and that there has been no significant variation in typhoon landfall frequency, except in 2005 when an extreme year was noted. It has been shown that there is no direct correlation with either the positive nor negative departure in average normal precipitation and frequency of land fallen TYs in China. However it has been concluded that a single typhoon event has a significant impact on the overall precipitation. Furthermore the peak typhoon season precipitation anomalies have been shown to be greater than the annual precipitation anomalies. It has also been apparent through the case studies that no correlation could be found between the wind intensity and the intensity of the precipitation. Keywords: Typhoon, Landfall, Precipitation, China, NWPAC. i Preface This study completes the Master Degree Program in Physical Geography at the Department of Earth Sciences, Göteborg University, Sweden.

  • Download-En4-1-1.Html) Datasets to Estimate Changes in Steric Sea Level
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON FACULTY OF NATURAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Ocean and Earth Science Sea-level Changes over the Last Six Decades in the South China Sea by Abd Muhaimin Amiruddin Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2017 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF NATURAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Ocean and Earth Science Doctor of Philosophy SEA-LEVEL CHANGES OVER THE LAST SIX DECADES IN THE SOUTH CHINA SEA By Abd Muhaimin Amiruddin Spatial and temporal changes in mean and extreme sea levels and their forcing mechanisms have been examined over the last six decades in the South China Sea (SCS). A total of 53 tide gauge records and 22 years of satellite altimetry observations, along with oceanographic and meteorological datasets, have been used. The first objective examined changes in mean sea level trends. It was found that the subregion basin sea level trends from altimetry for the period 1993-2014 varied between 2.9 ± 0.8 mm/yr in the northern SCS and 6.2 ± 5.7 mm/yr in the Celebes Sea. In the northern SCS, the halosteric variation significantly contributes to the observed altimetry trends, which are up to 3 mm/yr. The separation of the local sea level trends into various contributors involves high uncertainties especially due to vertical land motion (~3 mm/yr). The second objective assessed changes in inter-annual mean sea level variability. The inter-annual sea level variability is larger in the Celebes Sea and accounts for up to 70% of the monthly sea level variability. Changes in steric and wind stress contribute to more than half of inter-annual sea level variability in the Malacca Strait and the eastern basin of the SCS.

  • Tropical Cyclogenesis in the Western North Pacific
    NOAA Technical Report NESDIS 61 TROPICAL CYCLOGENESIS IN THE WESTERN NORTH PACIFIC Raymond M. Zehr RAMM Branch Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO Washington, D.C. July 1992 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE Barbara H. Franklin, Secretary National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration John A. Knauss, Under Secretary National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service Thomas N. Pyke, Jr. , Assistant Administrator ABSTRACT Tropical cyclogenesis in the western North Pacific is typically characterized by an early convective maximum which precedes the initial appearance of a tropical depression. The convection is quantified from cloud areas specified by cold infrared temperature thresh­ olds with 3-hourly GMS satellite data. It is hypothesized that this convective maximum represents an important process associated with tropical cyclogenesis and is a response to large-scale (synoptic-scale) forcing. A conceptual model is described in which the early convective maximum is viewed as a necessary but not sufficient condition for tropical cy­ clone formation. An important change in the wind field takes place in response to the convective maximum. A weak mesoscale vortex is initiated which is located within the larger broad-scale cyclonic circulation of a pre-existing tropical disturbance. However, the first substantial decrease in central sea-level pressure and resultant increase in surface wind speed occur at a later stage of tropical cyclogenesis. This early convective maximum and associated mesoscale vortex formation precede first designation as a tropical storm by an average period of about 3 days. The 850 mb and 200 mb objective analyses of conventional data are used to classify different synoptic-scale patterns associated with the formation of fifty individual tropical storms and typhoons during 1983-1984.

These are retired or amateur land- based forecasters, with access to the Internet, facsimile charts from gov- ernments, and sometimes various computer models. They broadcast weather data to sail- ors within their radio range on both SSB and Ham frequencies, answer questions, and try to keep us all in fair winds and smooth seas. Forecasters like Arnold Gibbons in the South Pacific and Herb Hilgen- berg in the Atlantic (along with many others) work long hours without pay and often without thanks from those they serve so selflessly. We, along with thousands of other sailors, have benefited from their ser- vices at various times all over the world. It is to these selfless men and women that we dedicate Mariner’s Weather Handbook.

  • A Chronology of Notable Weather Events by Douglas V. Hoyt
    A Chronology of Notable Weather Events by Douglas V. Hoyt Edition of 8/4/2011 243 A. D. An inundation of the sea in Lincolnshire laid under water many thousands of acres (Camden). 353 Flood in Cheshire in which 3000 people died along with thousands of cattle (Hayden). 402 Euxine Sea frozen over for 20 days (Hayden) 500 The Vandals from Poland held Western Africa, the Diocese of Africa, Visigoth (Western Goth) from Scandia held Spain, Ostrogoth (Eastern Goth) from Scandia held Italy, Germanic-Franks from Scandia held Gaul, Burgundians held Rhone river, and Celts, Germanic-Anglo-Saxon held the diocese of England. The massive migration of the Mongols, the Huns, Goth, Slav-Bulgars, and Avars westward is because of adverse weather conditions driving them from their lands . The Germanic-Danes inhabited the Danish Islands, Schonen, and later Jutland. St. Brendan (521-527) in his voyage to the northwest suggests the Celts of Ireland discovered America about this time. The Polynesian reached Hawaii and established agricultural settlements. These people had traveled 2500 miles from Island to Island. It is inconceivable that these peoples didn't reach America in the past 500 years. The Polynesians colonized Hawaii, Easter Island, and Madagascar by 500 A.D. 507 Men from Tsinngan, China report being blown across the Great Sea East to a people who speak a strange language. 508 In England, the rivers were frozen for more than two months (including Thames?). Possible severe winter. Rivers frozen for two months. Years also quoted as 507 or 509. 514 St. Brendan (484-577) of Ireland explored the area discovering the Hebrides, Orkney, Faeroe Islands and Iceland, starting about this time.
