Characteristics of Typhoon Krovanh
Track and Movement Characteristics
2015年第20号Typhoon “Krovanh”的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体路径呈现稳定的NW toward 转NE toward 抛物线形态. formed初期 (9月16日02:00) , 系统位 at 18.8°N, 149.4°E, 随后持续 toward NW. 在9月16日至9月18日期间, Typhoon 中心纬度从18.8°NN抬至23.7°N, 经度从149.4°EW进至142.5°E, 表明其受副热带高压引导气流影响显著, 保持NW行进态势.
The key turning point in the track occurred after 14:00 on September 18. At that time, the typhoon center was at 24.8°N, 142.3°E, and its longitude began decreasing before increasing (142.3°E - 142.1°E - 142.6°E), marking a gradual shift in movement from NW to NNE, eventually establishing a NE-moving track after September 19. Throughout the period, the typhoon did not make landfall anywhere and remained at sea until weakening and dissipating at 34°N, 149.2°E at 20:00 on September 20.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
“Krovanh” underwent a typical rapid enhancement to peak maintenance and then gradually weakening process. From September 16 at 02:00 of the Tropical Storm (18m/s, 998hPa) start, the system rapidly strengthened within 36h. September 17 at 08:00 to typhoon level (40m/s, 960hPa) , and at September 17 at 20:00 to peak intensity, identified as Severe Typhoon, the center lowest air pressure dropped to 950hPa, max wind to 45m/s. The peak stateined about 18h (until September 18 at 08:00) , during the air pressure stabilized at 950hPa, wind speedined at 45m/s. September 18, at 14:00, as the latitude rose, the system began to weaken, air pressure rose, wind speed declined, eventually turned
Its peak air pressure (950hPa) was low at 2003 'Krovanh' (954hPa), 2009 'Krovanh' (980hPa) and 2020 'Krovanh' (1000hPa) . In 2020, the same name Typhoon only reached Tropical Storm level, 2009 for Severe Tropical Storm, and both 2003 and 2015 to Severe Typhoon level.
