Characteristics of Typhoon Bopha

Track Track and Moving Characteristics

Typhoon Bopha (201224) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific低The latitude海域, 整体路径呈现显著的W行Trend, 并在后期出现N折转 toward . formed初期 (11月27日至29日) , 系统位 at lat 4°至5°之间, During从156.3°E快速W移至149.4°E, 维持稳定的W. Go to 12月后, 随着系统 toward W深入, 其纬度开始缓慢N抬. 12月2日至3日, Typhoon 中心位 at lat 5.8°至6.8°, lng 138.8°至131.8°区域, 此时仍保持较强的W行分量.

关键的转折发生在LandfallPhilippines棉兰老岛之后. 12月4日05:30Landfall后, 路径坐标显示系统继续 toward W穿越陆地, 但随后在S海E部海域逐渐调整 direction. 12月5日至6日, During变化减缓 (119.7°E至116.5°E) , The latitude持续N移 (9.9°N至12.3°N) , 表明Moving direction转为NW toward . 12月7日后, 路径进一步N折, 最终 at 12月9日到达lat 17.9°, lng 118.9°附近消散. 整个路径跨度大, 从赤道附近一直延伸至副热带海区, 涵盖了从Tropical Storm到Super Typhoon的完整演变过程.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

Bopha的Intensity演变具有“快速增强, 巅峰维持, Landfall减弱, 出海复强”的典型特征. 初始阶段为Tropical Storm (18m/s) , 在W行过程中迅速加强, 11月30日发展为Typhoon (35m/s) . 12月2日, 系统在远洋急剧增强为Super Typhoon, wind speed达55m/s, 气压降至935hPa, 并 at 次日维持该Intensity, minimum pressure 进一步探底至930hPa左右 (注: 全程巅峰记录为920hPa/60m/s) . 12月4日Landfall棉兰老岛时, intensity 虽有所减弱但仍保持Severe Typhoon级别 (48m/s) .

Landfall导致结构受损, 12月5日Go to S海后降级为Typhoon (38m/s) . 然而, 系统在海上并未持续衰弱, 反而在12月7日出现二次增强, 重回Severe Typhoon级别 (45m/s, 950hPa) , 显示出良好的海洋热力条件支持. 直至12月9日, 受环境因素影响才最终 weakened into Tropical Storm.

In contrast to the same name Typhoon, the 15th Typhoon Bopha peak in 2000 was only Severe Tropical Storm, intensity far less than in 2012 Bopha. in 2012 Bopha not only reached the Super Typhoon level, but also the minimum air pressure was 920hPa°E, max wind was up to 60m/s, its destruction potential and meteorological intensity were significantly high at the 2000 same name system, which is the most representative Severe Typhoon case of the year.
