Path and Moving Character Analysis

Typhoon Haishen (No.200820) showed a stable and continuous NE toward MovingTrend during the observation period. Based on four path sampling points data from 08:00 to 02:00 on November 16, 2008, the Typhoon Center from lat 26.4°N, 150.4° gradually Moving to lat 28.8°N, 156.1°. Thro the lifecycle, the latitude continues toward N advancing, the longitude continues toward E extending, and there is no apparent path fold or stagnation phenomenon, indicating that the influence of the guided airflow is relatively single and stable.

Specifically, within a time interval of 6 hours, the latitude of the Typhoon center increased by about 0.7° to 0.9°, the length increase varied from 1.4° to 2.8°. It is worth noting that the latitude variation of the last route (October 16th, 20:00 to November 17th, 02:00) increased significantly, reaching 2.8°, suggesting that its later Moving speed may be accelerated, or enhanced by the pre-W wind slope influence. by at all observation points equal at Oceans, and no Landfall records, the Typhoon has no direct impact on land, and its activity scope is completely limited to the Northwest Pacific open ocean.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

In terms of the Intensity characteristics, Typhoon Haishen (200820) showed extremely high stability. During all four observations, its central minimum air pressure was alwaysined at 996hPa, the max wind remained at 18m/s, and the intensity level was constant at Tropical Storm. The data showed that the Typhoon was neither strengthened nor weakened during the observation, at a dynamic balance state.

In comparison to the 2008 Haishen Super Typhoon level (minimum pressure 920hPa) and the 2002 Haishen (200225) Severe Typhoon level (minimum pressure 990hPa) in comparison to the 2008 Haishen Intensity is significantly weaker. However, the 2008 Haishen intensity is significantly weaker. In comparison to the 2006 Haishen (202611, minimum pressure 998hPa) and the 2015 Haishen (20150, minimum pressure 990hPa) in comparison with the same Tropical Storm level, Haishen (202611, minimum pressure 998hPa) and Haishen (20150, minimum pressure 990hPa) in comparison.
