AbstractIn recent years, it has been observed that the number of cyclones in the Arabian Sea have increased. Though there are many studies on the cyclogenesis of the Cyclones and the factors that lead to the formation of cyclone, one factor that is being studied in this project is of the Marine Heat Wave. The project aims to study the relation between the Marine heat wave events that occur in the Arabian sea and the duration at the time when cyclones have taken place in the Arabian sea in those coordinates and dates. Various studies have been taken on Marine heat waves and its effects on Marine Life, Bay of Bengal, Cyclogenesis of Amphan. This project aims to compare the data taken from NOAA OI SST day mean data for the last ten years from 2013 to 2022 and calculate and filter out the marine heat wave events occurred in each coordinate of the Arabian Sea with the resolution of 1X1 deg in the latitude and longitude and compare the events with the date of occurrence of a particular cyclone in these last ten years along with its coordinates and also the date on which the lowest expected pressure was observed along with its coordinate. Though there are various other scope related to this study, this project aims to find the relation as mentioned aforesaid. Python script has been used extensively for the generation of output, plots, graphs and desired result.
