Analyzing cyclone formation in the South Pacific and southeast Indian Ocean, indicating seasonal climate effects.
The 1993-94 tropical cyclone season in the South Pacific and southeast Indian Ocean was influenced by a return to more neutral ENSO conditions and a near-normal Walker circulation. Much of the region was characterised by positive sea-surface temperature anomalies. A total of fourteen cyclones formed across the region of which eight occurred in the southeast Indian Ocean. Cyclone numbers over the region to the east of 165°E were well below the long-term climatological average whereas cyclone numbers over the remainder of the region were slightly above average.
