Path and Moving Characteristics

Typhoon Sarika (201621) 的生命史始 at 2016年10月13日20时, formed at Philippines以E洋面 (13.5°N, 128.6°E) , 终 at 10月19日17时在N部湾 weakened into Nameless. 整体路径呈现典型的W行Trend, 横跨S海并连续三次Landfall. 从坐标序列分析, Typhoon formed后 toward NW, at 10月16日凌晨02:20首次LandfallPhilippines吕宋岛E部coastal . 穿越吕宋岛Go to S海后, 路径略微N抬, 维持WN, 直指我国华Scoastal . 10月18日09:50, Typhoon 在Hainan万宁 City和E镇coastal 实施第二次Landfall; 随后继续 toward WN direction推进, at 10月19日14:10在Guangxi防城港E兴 Citycoastal 完成第三次Landfall. 整个过程中, Typhoon 未出现明显的转 toward 或回旋, Moving路径相对平直, 体现了副热带高压S侧引导气流的稳定控制特征.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

Sarika的Intensity变化经历了“快速增强—Landfall减弱—近海再加强—最终衰减”的过程. formed初期为Tropical Storm (18m/s) , Go to S海前迅速增强, at 10月15日20时达到Severe Typhoon级别 (45m/s) . 尽管在穿越吕宋岛时Intensity有所波动, 但Go to S海后再次加强, 巅峰状态达到Super Typhoon级别, 中心最低气压降至930hPa°E, max wind 达55m/s. 值得注意的是, 在接近Hainan前夕 (10月17日21时至18日05时) , 其Intensity维持在Severe Typhoon级别 (42m/s) , 显示出良好的结构完整性. LandfallHainan后, 受地形摩擦及水汽条件变化影响, intensity 逐渐减弱, LandfallGuangxi时已降为Severe Tropical Storm, 最终在陆地上消散.

In 2011, the 3rd Typehoon Sarika peak was only Tropical Storm (minimum atmospheric pressure of 994hPa), and in 2004, the 20th Typehoon Sarika peak was Severe Tropical Storm (minimum atmospheric pressure of 980hPa).
