Typhoon Gerald (198712) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体路径呈现典型的NW toward MovingTrend, 随后逐渐转 toward NE direction. formed初期 (9月4日至5日) , 系统在15.9°N至17.1°N, 127.2°E至126.5°E之间缓慢 toward WN, 移速较缓, 经 toward 位移微小. Go to 发展阶段后 (9月6日至8日) , Typhoon 主体维持稳定的NW toward 行进路线, The latitude从17.4°N迅速提升至20.4°N, During由126.3°EW进至123.2°E, 显示出较强的引导气流作用.
After reaching 20.9°N, 121.9°E near the most W-side Position, the system began to accelerate toward NE. By September 11th, before the disintegration, the center coordinates had moved to 27.2°N, 117.3°E. Thro the process, the Typhoon did not landfall any land, was always active at sea, its path was smooth, with no apparent cyclical twist or stagnation phenomenon, belonging to the more standard ocean transit typhoon track.
Gerald的Intensity演变经历了完整的“ formed-增强-巅峰-减弱”周期. 初始阶段为Nameless, wind speed15m/s. 经过约3天的持续加强, at 9月7日升级为Typhoon 级别. 随后Intensity爆发式增长, 仅在48h内 (9月7日12时至9月9日00时) , max wind 从38m/s跃升至53m/s, 达到Super Typhoon级别, 这也是其生命史中的巅峰状态.
From the Severe Typhoon (46m/s) on September 9 at 12 a.m. to the Nameless (15m/s) on September 10 at 12 a.m., Time dropped from the Typhoon level in just one day, showing the rapid decline characteristics of the high-intensity system in the high-latitude waters.
Gerald (198408) and Gerald (198101) peak intensity were only Severe Tropical Storm level, while Gerald in 1987 not only reached the Super Typhoon standard, and Max Wind at 53m/s, indicating that the atmospheric environment of the year was more favorable at the deep development of the tropical cyclone.
