Numbering notes: The internationally unified numbering system for the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by the JMA in Japan, the Tokyo Regional Professional Meteorological Center, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1972. The identifier 197202 is a historical number continued by the CMA. The numbers assigned that year by the JMA in Japan, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and China's meteorological agencies may differ for the same typhoon and cannot be compared directly.
