Track Moving and Spatial Distribution Characteristics

Typhoon Susan (198414)'s life history is short, the main activity area is concentrated in the S-sea W area. From 06:00 on 11 October 1984 to 00:00 on 13 October 1984, the system as a whole presents a stable WNWTrend. Initial position at lat 11.5°N, 116.2°, then continued toward W push, and eventually dispersed at lat 13.6°N, 106.9° near. During the entire life cycle, the central latitude of the Typhoon rose from 11.5°N slowly to 13.6°N, and the length was greatly moved from 116.2°E to 106.9°E, spanning about 9.3 degrees.

It is worth noting that between 06:00 and 12:00 on October 12, the latitude remained unchanged at 12.5°N, while the length continued W shift, indicating that the system Moving direction was briefly adjusted to W toward .

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

在Intensity变化方面, Typhoon Susan经历了“ formed-增强-减弱”的典型短生命史过程. 初始阶段为Nameless, max wind 12m/s. 随着 toward WMoving, 系统逐渐组织加强, at 10月12日06:00达到peak intensity, 升级为Tropical Storm, max wind 增至20m/s. 然而, 巅峰状态维持Time极短, 仅6h后 (10月12日12:00) , wind speed便回落至15m/s, 重新降级为Nameless. 此后Intensity持续衰减, 至10月13日00:00结束时, max wind 已降至10m/s. 这种快速增强后迅速减弱的特征, 可能与S海海域的环境场变化或垂直风切变影响有关.

Data showed that in 1966, 1972 and 1988 the same-name Typhoon “Susan” peak intensity reached Typhoon level, while in 1984 Susan only reached Tropical Storm intensity with max winds of 20m/s, far lower at other years of the same name Severe Typhoon system.
