Analysis of Typhoon Bess

Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Bess (197421) at 1974年10月8日00时在Philippines以E洋面 formed, 初始Position为12°N, 136°E. 在整个生命史中, 该Typhoon 呈现出稳定的NW toward MovingTrend, 未出现明显的路径转 toward 或停滞现象. 从经The latitude坐标序列分析, 其During从136°E持续W移至104°E, 纬度由12°NN抬至约19.2°N后略有S落至19°N, 整体路径呈平滑的WNW走 toward . 值得注意的是, 该Typhoon 全程无Landfall记录, 始终在海上活动, 最终 at 10月14日12时在19°N, 104°E附近减弱消散. 这种长距离的海上移行路径表明其受副热带高压S侧引导气流影响显著, 且未受到陆地地形摩擦的直接干扰, 直至Go to 中S半岛近海区域才逐渐消亡.

Intensity Evolution and Life Cycle

Bess的Intensity变化经历了典型的“增强-巅峰-波动-减弱”过程. formed初期为Nameless, wind speed12m/s; 随后快速加强, at 10月9日12时升级为Tropical Storm (23m/s) , 10月10日00时达到Severe Tropical Storm级别 (30m/s) . 10月10日12时, 其在17.1°N, 124.4°E附近达到peak intensity, 中心Max Wind录得33m/s, 定性为Typhoon 级. 此后Intensity出现波动, 10月11日12时曾短暂 weakened into Severe Tropical Storm (28m/s) , 但10月12日00时至12时再次维持Typhoon Intensity (33m/s) , 显示出一定的Intensity韧性. 10月13日起, 随着系统 toward W深入, intensity 开始不可逆地衰减, 先后降格为Severe Tropical Storm, Tropical Storm, 最终在10月14日回归Nameless并结束生命史, 全程历时约6天半.

Comparison of Typhoon

In the 'Bess' sequence of names, the BessIntensity of 1974 is relatively weak. data show that its peak intensity is only Typhoon level (33m/s) . in comparison, the 10th Typhoon Bess of 1982 and the 21st Typhoon Bess of 1996 reached Super Typhoon or Severe Typhoon level, and the 2nd Typhoon Bess of 1979 was also Severe Typhoon. only the 9th Typhoon Bess's peak intensity (Tropical Storm) was low at 1974 this process.
