Global monsoon low pressure system datasets
A global dataset of monsoon low pressure systems, compiled using a more highly optimized tracking algorithm from the work titled Assessing historical variability of South Asian monsoon lows and depressions with an optimized tracking algorithm. This new dataset contains tracks for 5 reanalysis products through the end of 2019, and includes tracks from the recently released ERA5 product as well as JRA-55 (which extends back in time to the year 1958).

Better tracking of tropical vortices
Real-time forecast of south Asia monsoon low-pressure system from 10-day numerical weather predictions by the GFS-IITM (Indian version of GFS with a spatial resolution around 12km) model, identified with tracking algorithms.
