Typhoon Dot Trail Characteristics

Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Dot (197615) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现典型的NW toward Moving随后转 toward NE的抛物线形态. formed初期 (8月17日至18日) , 系统位 at lat 18°至20°N, 139°至143°之间, 稳定 toward NW. 随着The latitude升高, 其Moving速度有所加快, at 8月19日至20日期间穿越lng 130°至125°海域, 此时路径仍维持NW走 toward .

When the system Moving to lat 30.2°N, near 122.3°, the Moving direction begins to change significantly, from NW to N, and then to NE direction. From August 22 to 24, the Typhoon accelerates toward NE, crossing Japan to S surface, eventually weakening dispersal near lng 140°.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

在Intensity演变方面, Typhoon Dot经历了一个完整的“ formed-加强-巅峰-减弱”过程. 初始阶段为Nameless, max wind 10m/s. 经过约48h的缓慢增强, at 8月19日12时升级为Tropical Storm (23m/s) , 并在8月20日00时达到生命史中的peak intensity, 定为Severe Tropical Storm, max wind 录得25m/s. 值得注意的是, 其peak intensity维持Time极短, 仅12h后 (8月20日12时) 便开始减弱, 重新降级为Tropical Storm. 此后, 随着系统 toward NGo to 高The latitude冷水区及受W风带影响, intensity 持续衰减, at 8月22日00时降格为Nameless, 直至最终消散.

与历届同名Typhoon 相比, 1976年的DotIntensity显著偏弱. 数据显示, 1985年, 1989年, 1990年及1993年的同名Typhoon peak intensity均达到Typhoon 或Super Typhoon级别, 远超1976年Dot的Severe Tropical Storm等级. 这表明在“Dot”这一命名序列中, 1976年的系统属 at Intensity较弱, 寿命较短且未对陆地造成直接影响的个案, 其气象特征更倾 toward at 远洋过境型热带气旋.
