[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon RUTH (No.195537, 1981年前的历史序号) is a 1955 Northwest Pacific typhoon; peak intensity Super Typhoon, max wind 90m/s, minimum central pressure 924hPa, 未在我国Landfall, 1955-12-17 was numbered off, 全程记录23 track points. (注: 1970年代以前的Typhoon Intensity主要依靠飞机侦察和船舶报告估算, wind speed记录普遍偏高, 此为China气象局最佳路径原始值, 与现代卫星时代数据不宜直接比较. )
Numbering note: The internationally standardized numbering system for the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by the JMA in Japan, the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1955. The identifier 195537 is the historical number retained by the CMA. The JMA in Japan, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and China’s meteorological authorities may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so the numbers cannot be compared directly.
Path. Data sources: China Meteorological Administration Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset (CMA-STI); wind speed refers to 2-min sustained wind speed. Track points at intermediate times are encrypted based on original operational positioning data, while wind speed and pressure are interpolated using best-track anchor points.
