Introduction

Tropical cyclone are low-pressure systems characterized by high speed winds and very high rainfall occurring in 5-30°N region of Earth.

Main Body

Rising intensity and frequency in Arabian:

1Growing temperature due to Global Warming as illustrated by IPCC AR 6.
2Western disturbances originating in Arab Mediterranean sea and benefity to Arabian after from cyclones.
3Impact of Indian Ocean Dipole and Southern Oscillation changes contributing to donation of cyclone depression
4Marine Heat Waves in arabian sea also lead to increase[d] temperature, evaporation and cyclone
1Early Warning: Use of Doppler Radar Stages. Stochastic models to detect and predict cyclonetts
2Dissemination of Warning: Use of point a digital media, community radio, PM-to point programme to ensure timely delivery of info to all affected
3Structural Measures :) Cyclonic tents away from affected region to place affected :) Retrofitting Lifts as [per?] IS-875 to prevent damage by buildings.
4Non-Structural Measure :) Hazard Zonation Mapping to earliest the vulnerable areas and ensure relocation of people from yellow.

:) Trains and Capacity Building of Local population using modelled, educational.
