| Research Abstract |
The dataset of the location of tropical cyclone(TC) over the western North Pacific during the 20th century was created by collecting and digitizing the historical paper records stored in the libraries in Asian countries. This dataset provides us the new view of TC number trend during the 20th century. Overall numbers do not have trend but the TC tracks tend to shift northward and eastward during the 20th century.
