From formed early (7.7°N, 140.1°E) to dispersed (13.4°N, 114.1°E) , its latitude is slowly N rising about 5.7 degrees, the length is significantly W shifted over 26 degrees, showing the characteristics of the typical W line under the sub-tropical high-pressure S side guiding airflow. During the Moving process, Typhoon does not have a noticeable turn toward or flip, the path curve is smaller. It is worth noting that during December 25, 02:00 to 17:00, the latitude isined near 13.6°N, while the latitude from 126.8°EW

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

Nock-ten's Intensity evolution underwent a typical process of 'fast enhancement - peak maintenance - rapid weakening.' The initial phase was Tropical Storm, then rapidly intensified within 48h. Especially in the short 18h on December 23 17:00 to 24:00, Pressure dropped from 980hPa to 925hPa, max wind increased from 30m/s to 55m/s, completed the crossing from Severe Tropical Storm to Super Typhoon. December 25 17:00 reached the peak, minimum pressure 900hPa, max wind 65m/s. However, Go to S after sea environmental conditions deteriorated, intensity sharply decreased. From December 2608:00 Severe Typhoon (45m/s) to 2805:00 Nameless (16m/s) , in only two days Time completed the

Nock-ten peak in 2011 was only Severe Tropical Storm (980hPa) and Nock-ten peak in 2004 was Severe Typhoon (945hPa) .
