Preface

The necessity of the preparation and edition of such intricate
publication, that is the printed version offered to the reader, of
geoinformation system including the chronological catalogue and
evolutionary database of the global tropical cyclogenesis is dictated, in
opinion of the authors, whole number of objective circumstances. On the one
hand, the own long-term experience of the authors on formation of the
temporary catalogues and databases of tropical cyclogenesis for the
decision of a number of concrete physical problems has shown absence of a
similar sort of archives of the systematized data, that could in the full
measure satisfy the inquiries and requirements of the physical experiment.
On the other hand, we note that the classification procedures, accepted to
the present time, for the various forms of the tropical disturbunces can
not in the full measure satisfy the inquiries of remote monitoring of the
tropics. It derivates the serious dissensions in the initial ('raw')
information as well as in databases and archives of regional
cyclogenesises. Below we shall touch the specified circumstances in detail
enough. Here we specify that the experimental base of the study of the
effect of tropical disturbances of a various degree of intensity on
thermodynamics and kinematics of the tropical atmosphere should be served
with the systematized remote data about global tropical cyclogenesis, i.e.
about the physical process considered simultaneously on all of the basin of
World ocean (instead of on its separate basins - that is investigated in
overwhelming amount of scientific works).
Other group of circumstances lays in an administrative plane and is
connected with a wide circulation of the textual messages, separate
fragments of the satellite information and preliminary forecasts of active
phases of evolution of tropical cyclones in mass media and in a network
Internet by federal US organizations and business with the purpose of
warning the population about the impending danger and taking the necessary
precautions. Not in the least imploring the importance of such statement of
the problem, it is necessary to note that the absence of the systematic
approach in such fragmentary archiving seriously hampers the use of these
sources of the information both for the scientific analysis, and for the
development of scientific databases. Such information requires the very
serious critical analysis, before it can be used in the scientific and
practical purposes.
Besides we note that the electronic and printed versions of the same
database considerably differ both on structure and on character of
representation of the data. And, hence, they are in essence intended for
performance, generally speaking, of different scientific and applied tasks.
All of the preceding has induced the authors to undertake a attempt of
the edition of the printed version of the global tropical cyclogenesis data
for 1983-2000 years in the form, which, in opinion of the authors, will be
convenient enough and effective both for the preliminary analysis at
statement of a different sort of experimental physical tasks and during
their concrete decision.
For convenience of the English language reader the present edition (
namely its textual part) is represented in the bilingual form (Russian and
English texts).
As far as the authors know, the geoinformation system of a similar nature
including the chronological catalogues and the evolutionary databases for
the global tropical cyclogenesis is first published. The represented
edition is the natural generalization of a cycle of works of the authors on
information maintenance of the study of the global tropical cyclogenesis ,
executed since 1990 till the present time.
During all this time the authors have used advices and recommendations of
the colleagues. First of all, the authors are grateful to the employees of
Hydrometeocentre of Russia T. S. Kruzhkova and T. G. Ivanidze for putting
at our disposal the primary information on tropical cyclones from the
archive of Hydrometeocentre for 1983-1992.
Perfectly understanding all complexity and responsibility of the present
publishing project, the authors with gratitude will take into account all
constructive wishes and remarks of the interested readers (e-mail:
esharkov@iki.rssi.ru).
The authors are thankful to Mrs. Nataly Komarova for the constructive and
benevolent approach in typing and forming the draft version and the cover
design of the present intricate publishing project.
