Tropical Cyclones — Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) — Oceania

Annual

Accumulated Cyclone Energy per season from the ocean basin(s) that actually affect Oceania's coastlines, reused directly from the companion global-tropical-cyclones site's already-validated per-basin data -- not a landfall-based reclassification of the GLOBAL rollup. Unit: ACE units (10⁴ kt²).

Computing trend…

Summed from GTC's South Pacific (SPAC) + South Indian Ocean (SIO) basins (an inner join -- a season missing from either basin's record is dropped, not treated as zero). The reliable window starts 1980, matching the Klotzbach & Landsea recommendation the site's global (all-basin) Tropical Cyclones variable uses. Select an individual basin above to view it separately from the combined total. See the global Tropical Cyclones page for the all-basin picture and the NATL+WPAC extended-history series.
