NUMERICAL SIMULATION STUDY OF THE EFFECTS OF TERRAIN AROUND TAIWAN ON TYPHOON DOT(1990)

Funding:

  • With the use of analyzed TCM-90 data,Typhoon Dot(1990)and complex evolutions are successfullyreproduced in numerical sboulation as it travels over the island of Taiwan. The simulation includes theformation of secondary highs in both circulation and geopotential fields, trajectory jumps during mergence with main centers, anomalous northward movement of a low center west of Taiwan, evolutionalprocess of a low-level jet over the Taiwan Straits and significant deviations of circulation center fromgeopotentia1 center between upper and lower levels.
