Track Track and Moving Features

2017年第15号Typhoon “Sanvu”的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现显著的“先NW, 后NE”的抛物线型转 toward 特征. formed初期 (8月28日至29日) , 系统位 at 147°E附近, 稳定 toward NW, The latitude从19.5°N迅速提升至22.6°N. 随后在8月30日至31日期间, 路径出现明显的W折迹象, During由146.7°E toward W回溯至141.1°E, 并 at 27°附近形成路径最W端, 此处可视为其Moving direction的关键转折点.

From September 1 to September 3, its length shifted from 141.9°E rapid to 152.7°E, the latitude then jumped from 28°N significantly to 41.6°N. Thro its lifetime, the Typhoon did not landfall any land, was always active on the surface of the ocean, and eventually weakened dispersal in high latitudes.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

In terms of intensity changes, “Sanvu” underwent a complete process of strengthening to the peak and weakening. The initial phase is Tropical Storm level (18m/s) , with toward NWMoving, the intensity is steadily increased. August 30 upgraded to Severe Tropical Storm, and at September 1st at 02:00 reached the peak, at which time the central minimum air pressure dropped to 970hPa, max wind to 35m/s, rated as Typhoon level. It is worth noting that during peak intensity maintenance (September 1st, 02:00 to 2:00), its core parameters remained stable, air pressureined at 970hPa, wind speedined at 35m/s. After turning to NE, with the latitude rising and sea temperature, the system gradually weaken

Compared with the same name History, 2017 'Sanvu' peak intensity is equal to 2012 No. 2 Typhoon 'Sanvu', the lowest air pressure of both is 970hPa, and both reach Typhoon level Intensity. compared, 2023 No. 1 Typhoon 'Sanvu' Intensity is weaker, only to Tropical Storm level (992hPa) ; and 2005 No. 10 Typhoon 'Sanvu' peak to Severe Tropical Storm level (975hPa) .
