Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Ruth (198014)'s life history is relatively short, from formed to dispersed for about 3 and a half days. Its overall path shows a stable WN going toward, with no noticeable turn toward or rotation phenomenon. Initial phase (September 13, 00 to 12) , the system in the S Sea N area (about 113.8°E, near 19°N)ins NamelessIntensity, Moving speed slower, and slightly after S pressure turns toward WMoving.

From coordinate sequence analysis, the Typhoonined a relatively linear Moving trajectory between September 14 and 15, with the latitude gradually rising from 18.3°N to 19.9°N, the length then moving rapidly from 113.7°E to 107.8°E. It is worth noting that when the system approached the VietnamE district coastal (September 15 at 18.6 a.m. to 16.6 a.m.), the latitude began to appear as a weak S falling trend (from 19.8°N to 19.2°N), but the overall trend remained toward WGo to the MidS peninsula.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

Ruth的Intensity演变经历了“ formed-增强-巅峰-迅速减弱”的典型过程. 9月13日为Nameless阶段, wind speed维持在15-17m/s. 9月14日凌晨 intensified into Tropical Storm, 并在随后两天内持续增强. 9月15日12时发展为Severe Tropical Storm (30m/s) , 并 at 同日18时达到peak intensity, 认定为Typhoon intensity with max winds of 达33m/s. 然而, 其巅峰状态维持Time极短, 仅6h后 (9月16日00时) 便 weakened into Severe Tropical Storm, 随后在6h内进一步衰减为Nameless并趋 at 消散, 显示出其在近岸或Landfall前夕结构快速崩溃的特征.

Compared to the previous typhoon, Ruth’s intensity was at an intermediate level in 1980; compared to Ruth in 1991 (top Super Typhoon) and Ruth in 1983 (Severe Tropical Storm), its intensity was weaker; but stronger at Ruth in 1994 (Tropical Storm) and Ruth in 1987 (Nameless).
