Tropical cyclones are one of the prominent weather systems that are generated over the tropical oceans. The cyclones that develop in the Southwest Indian Ocean (SWIO) usually travel west then southwest and finally recurve to southeast, generally before reaching the East African coast. However, it is

Abstract
The transition from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Holocene was an internal of climate variability that was characterised by large spatial and temporal variations. Here we show that deglaciation warming in the northern Indian Ocean was initiated ca. 19βka, which is contemporary with deglaciation warming in the Antarctica and Southern Ocean. A gradual warming occurred during the glacial/Holocene transition in the northern Indian Ocean, unlike the twoβstep warming seen in Greenland and the North Atlantic. Synchronous deglacial warming ca. 19βka in Antarctica and the northern Indian Ocean suggests a strong connection in the propagation of climate signals between Antarctica and the Indian Ocean, probably through the Indonesian Throughflow and/or Subantarctic Mode Water.

## Abstract The meridional displacement of East Asia jet (EAJ) is characterized by the leading mode of upper tropospheric zonal wind variability over East Asia in boreal summer, and is closely related to the East Asia summer monsoon and downstream climate. Present study reveals that the meridional
The aim of this paper is to evaluate tropical cyclone (TC) track forecasts of the United Kingdom Meteorological Office model in the south-west Zndian Ocean for 1991-92. These results are then compared with similar results for 1989-90 and 1990-91. Displacement errors are used for the evaluation of TC
