Typhoon Rita trajectory analysis
Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Rita (196101) 的生命史始 at 1961年1月14日12时, formed at Northwest Pacific低纬度海域 (8.3°N, 134.7°E) . 在初始阶段, 系统呈现明显的W行Trend, 从14日至15日中午, 其经度由134.7°E快速W移至132.0°E附近, 纬度缓慢N抬. 1月16日00时, 系统在10.1°N, 131.8°E处达到路径最W端, 随后发生显著的路径转 toward . 自16日12时起, Typhoon Moving direction由 toward W转为 toward NE, 经度逐渐 toward E回升. 整个生命期内, 系统始终维持在热带海域活动, 未触及任何land, 无Landfall记录. 路径整体呈现“先W后E”的抛物线型特征, 转 toward 点位 at Philippines以E洋面. 随着系统 toward NE, 其纬度从10°N附近逐步攀升至14.9°N, 最终 at 1月20日06时在14.9°N, 143.4°E附近减弱消散, 全生命周期约6天, total 计24个观测 track points.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
在Intensity变化方面, Typhoon Rita经历了短暂的增强后迅速减弱. 初始 formed时为Tropical Depression, max wind 12m/s. 在W行过程中, 系统Intensity稳步提升, at 1月15日12时wind speed增至17m/s, 并在1月16日00时达到peak intensity, 升级为Tropical Storm, max wind 录得20m/s. 然而, 巅峰状态维持Time极短, 仅12h后 (1月16日12时) , 系统即 weakened into Tropical Depression, wind speed回落至17m/s. 此后直至消散, 系统一直维持Tropical Depression等级, wind speed稳定在12m/s至15m/s之间, 未见二次增强迹象.
Data showed that the 1972s, 1975s and 1978s of the same name Typhoon “Rita” peak intensity respectively reached the Super Typhoon or Typhoon level, far beyond Rita’s 1961 Tropical Storm level.
