%X This study is set out to understand the impact of El Ni£żo Modoki and the Tropical Cyclone Potential Intensity (TCPI) in the North Indian Ocean. We also hypothesized and tested if the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) reveals a likely connection between the two phenomena. An advanced mathematical tool namely the Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is employed for the analysis. A major advantage of using EMD is its adaptability approach to deal with the non-linear and non-stationary signals which are similar to the signals used in this study and are also common in both atmospheric and oceanic sciences. This study has identified IOD as a likely missing link to explain the connection between El Ni£żo Modoki and TCPI. This lays the groundwork for future research into this connection and its possible applications in meteorology. View Full-Tex
