Tropical disturbances and cyclones are regularly formed at the Bay of Bengal basin. There are some common traits in them, albeit each one of them is unique. Discerning climatology for the basic features of any tropical cyclone is useful in numerous ways. This research has attempted to find a climatology for frequency, life period, energy, and speed for the tropical cyclones formed at the Bay of Bengal over a period of 31 years – from 1990 to 2020. The results elicit that there are marked changes in these aforementioned features. The total frequency, accumulated duration, and combined energy have escalated over the years. To be precise, these changes have taken effect more rigorously for the Post-monsoonal tropical cyclones. The overall translational speed has slightly diminished in recent years, except for the translational speed of cyclones formed during Pre-monsoon. These changes will have major ramifications on the lives and livelihoods of people, more so for those living in coastal areas. Hence, necessary actions are required to cut the probable losses and damages. The Dhaka University Journal of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10(1), 2021, P 23-31


The tropical cyclones are destructive weather systems and are known for their devastating effects during landfall. Cyclone tracking is one of the important tasks for the meteorologist. The eye of the tropical cyclone is the most remarkable feature. The eye of the cyclone is the roughly circular area extending over 30 - 65 km in diameter. The deepest convection is found around the eyewall for some tens of kilometers. The eye grows deeper when the cyclone becomes heavy and the winds speed grows high. In this study, the data from the 1995 - 2016 of the CIRA imagery for the tropical cyclone of the Bay of Bengal basin is analyzed and the model is developed to determine the eye of the cyclone. The segmented eye features are fed into the Rule Based Classifier which classifies the tropical cyclone images based on the presence and absence of the eye.
