Abstract

Methods of prediction of storm tracks in the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal by the use of a limited area primitive equation barotropic model have been discussed with case-studies, They are (i) the total flow direct integration method. {ii) the point vortex method in which the basic flow is separated from the disturbance and integrated, treating the vortex as a point and advecting the same at each time step by the basic field and (iii) the modified point vortex method in which the interaction of the disturbance flow with the basic flow is taken into account in the method in (ii).
