OBJECTIVE
To study the influence of Land Use/ Land Cover (LULC)
Change on the forecasting of cyclone intensity and track
prediction. In the Mesoscale Model(MM5) terrain, Indian
portion of LU/LC data from USGS was replaced IRS AWiFS
derived LULC map.

Land use/Land cover (LULC) are one of the dynamic features that under go rapid changes due to anthropogenic and associated developmental activities .
Accurate prediction of tropical cyclone track and intensity are challenging task for any operational meteorological agency as it involves using of state of the art numerical models and realistic data sets .
Land use/land cover changes influence energy fluxes through surface roughness changes.
(The present study pertains to AILA cyclone that occurred in BoB during May 22 – 25, 2009.)

So far USGS derived global coverage with resolution of 1 degree,30,10,5,2 minutes and 30 seconds has been used to run Mesoscale Models. (1993 AVHRR based)
IRS-AWiFS derived LU/LC with 56 m resolution have been scaled to different resolutions & Indian region is replaced with AWiFS derived data and made compatible to mesoscale model run.
WRF/MM5 compatible inputs provided to CTCZ program, NCMRWF, SHAR Centre, IMD for evaluation and operational use.
As per user feedback, model output provides better results with the use of AWiFS derived LULC layer instead of using USGS derived LULC layers.

The movement of the system was better simulated in terms of direction and intensity with AWiFS LULC data compared to that in USGS. This has been attributed to better representation of surface roughness and energy fluxes with the current land use/land cover data set.
The intensity of tropical cyclones in terms of MSLP and maximum sustainable wind illustrates that USGS has a tendency to intensify the system earlier than actual observation. AWiFS gives reasonably good results for the time variation of MSLP and wind matching with the observations.
