Characteristics of Typhoon Bopha

Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Bopha (200015) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体路径呈现显著的“先NW后SW”的折线型特征. formed初期 (9月5日至7日) , 系统位 at lat 20°至23°N, 131°至136°之间, 受引导气流影响, 稳定 toward NW. 9月7日18时至9月8日06时是其路径的关键转折期, 系统在抵达lat 25.5°N, 128.3°附近后, Moving direction发生剧烈改变, 由NW转 toward SW. 此后, Typhoon 持续 toward SW direction行进, 直至9月12日消散 at lat 16.3°N, 124.3°附近. 整个过程中, Typhoon 未Landfall任何陆地, 始终在海上活动. 从经The latitude变化速率来看, 其在转 toward 前的NW行阶段Moving速度较快, 而在转 toward 后的SW行阶段, 纬度跨度较大, 显示其S下Trend明显.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

在Intensity方面, Bopha经历了一个完整的“增强-维持-减弱”过程. 初始阶段为Nameless, wind speed12m/s. 随着 toward NWMoving, 系统逐渐加强, at 9月7日18时升级为Tropical Storm (23m/s) , 并在9月8日06时达到peak intensity, 定为Severe Tropical Storm, max wind 28m/s. 巅峰状态维持约12h后, 自9月9日06时起开始减弱, wind speed降至23m/s并回落为Tropical Storm等级. 尽管在9月10日出现短暂的wind speed回升 (25m/s) , 但整体Trend已转为衰减, 最终 at 9月11日18时降级为Nameless, 并 at 次日凌晨进一步减弱至10m/s后 was numbered off.

In 2012 Bopha developed into a Super Typhoon with peak air pressure of 920hPa, while in 2000 Bopha only reached Severe Tropical Storm intensity with max winds of 28m/s, and no specific minimum air pressure data records, both of which have great differences in destruction potential and meteorological scale.
