Intensity Analysis

Pamela showed extremely rapid enhancement processes and sharp decline characteristics. From September 8th's Nameless (15m/s) start, the system rapidly upgraded to Typhoon in about 48h and at mid-September 10th reached the Super Typhoon level. Its Intensity peak appeared on September 11th at 12:00, max wind up to 79m/s, at this time the center position at 23.7°N, 124.1°E. It is noteworthy that during the peak maintenance phase (September 10th to 12:00 to 11th September 12:00) wind speed increased from 51m/s to 79m/s, showing extremely explosive power. However, High Intensityined Time is shorter, after November 18th's:00 wind speed gradually dropped to 64m/s, and subsequently disintegrated
