Typhoon Doyle Trail Characteristics
Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Doyle (198809) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现典型的“NW—N—NE”抛物线型转 toward 特征. formed初期 (8月14日至16日) , 系统位 at 170°E以E的广阔洋面, 受副热带高压S侧引导气流影响, 稳定 toward NW, 纬度从19°N缓慢爬升至20.2°N, 经度W移约4.4度. 8月17日至18日为路径的关键转折期, Typhoon 在到达23.7°N, 164.2°E附近时, Moving direction由NW逐渐转为正N, 随后进一步偏 toward NE. 这一转 toward 过程伴随着纬度的快速增加, 从8月17日的21.6°N迅速N抬至8月19日的29.6°N, 表明其已脱离低纬信风带, Go to 中纬度W风带控制区域. 8月20日后, 系统完全转 toward NE, 直至8月24日在36.8°N, 176.8°E附近减弱消散. 全生命周期内无Landfall记录, 始终在海上活动.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
Doyle’s intensity evolved through three phases: rapid intensification, a prolonged peak, and gradual weakening. Initially, it was a tropical depression with a central pressure of 1000 hPa. From August 15–17, the system intensified explosively, with maximum winds rising from 20 m/s to 50 m/s and the central pressure plunging to 945 hPa, reaching severe typhoon status. Notably, Doyle maintained peak wind speeds of 50 m/s for more than 30 hours from 02:00 on August 17 to 14:00 on August 18, demonstrating exceptional structural stability. From August 19, increasing latitude and cooling sea temperatures caused its intensity to decline. Winds weakened to 40 m/s before it gradually weakened into a tropical storm. It was finally downgraded to a tropical depression on August 23.
Compared with the typhoon of the same name, the 21st typhoon of 1984 also reached severe typhoon status, but its minimum central pressure was 935 hPa, 10 hPa lower than that of Doyle in 1988. This indicates that the 1984 typhoon had a slightly higher peak intensity, although both were strong oceanic typhoon systems. Doyle in 1988, however, maintained its peak intensity for longer.
