1983年第7号Typhoon “Carmen”的生命周期始 at S海E部海域, 整体路径呈现显著的NE toward MovingTrend. formed初期 (8月10日20时至12日14时) , 系统中心位 at lat 15.1°至17.7°N, 115.2°至116.8°之间, Moving速度相对缓慢, 主要维持N至NE direction的漂移. 在此期间, 经The latitude变化幅度较小, 表明引导气流较弱或处 at 鞍型场中.

Since August 13, the Typhoon Moving direction has seen a significant shift, moving from the previous NMoving to the stable NE direction.Especially during the early morning of August 14 to the morning of August 15, the length range has increased significantly, moving rapidly from lng 120.3° to 128.3°, the latitude has also synchronized N to 21°N. The characteristics of this accelerated NE shift are usually associated with the sub-tropical high-pressure backline N elevation or W windship pre-SW air flow guidance.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

In terms of intensity, “Carmen” acts as a slow development and intensity limited tropical cyclone. Initial phase is Nameless, Pressureins at 1000-1002hPa, max wind is stable at 12m/s. Until August 14 at 08 am, with the system toward EMovingGo to more open waters, its Intensity first reaches Tropical Storm intensity with max winds of increase to 20m/s, minimum pressure drops to 996hPa.
