Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Chataan (2002年第6号) 的生命史长达13.5天, 整体路径呈现典型的“NW行后转 toward NE”的抛物线形态. formed初期 (6月27日至7月1日) , 系统在低The latitude海域 (3.9°N-6.7°N) 活动, Moving direction较为复杂, 先 toward SW微移, 随后转为W及NW direction, Moving速度相对缓慢. 7月2日至7月8日为快速NW行进阶段, 纬度从7.5°N迅速N抬至22.8°N, During由152.4°EW进至133.2°E, 显示出受副热带高压引导气流影响的稳定特征.

The key turn toward point appeared between July 8th and July 9th. July 8th at 6 p.m. at 22.8°N, 133.2°E, and by July 9th at 6 p.m. moved to 27.6°N, 132.6°E, at which time the length of change was very small, indicating that the system began to slow down and was ready to turn toward.

Evolution of intensity and peak state

Chataan的Intensity演变经历了“缓慢增强—爆发式加强—维持巅峰—快速减弱”四个阶段. 初生期为Nameless, 6月29日增强为Tropical Storm. 7月4日发展为Typhoon (38m/s) , 随后Go to 快速增强期. 仅用4天Time, 从Typhoon 级跃升至Super Typhoon级. 7月8日06时达到生命周期中的peak intensity, 中心最低气压降至910hPa, max wind 高达66m/s, 属 at 极强的Super Typhoon范畴.

During peak intensity maintenance (July 5th to July 9th), the system continued to maintain the Super Typhoon level, air pressureined between 944hPa to 910hPa, wind speed at 51m/s to 66m/s high-level shocks. After July 9th, as the latitude rose to 27.6°N above, the sea temperature decreased and the vertical wind shift, the intensity began to decrease significantly. By July 10th at 18am, it had weakened into Tropical Storm (23m/s, 991hPa) . Compared to at other typhoon of the same name or similar code, Chataan with 9h10Pa extremely low Pressure and 66m/s extreme wind speed, demonstrated extremely high energy density and destruction potential, is the 2002 Pacific Typhoon's most representative seasonal
