Abstract
The possible relationship between global warming and tropical cyclone (TC) activity in the western North Pacific is discussed in this paper. It is found that none of the time series of the annual number of TCs, annual number of intense TCs, track distributions and landfall locations shows a linear trend. Rather, all of them show large interannual and multi-decadal variations that can be explained to a large extent by similar variations in the planetary-scale variations in the atmospheric and oceanic conditions in the Pacific. These results suggest that global warming cannot be attributed to the observed variations in TC activity in the western North Pacific.
