초록
This study confirms that a decadal variation of the SST (Sea Surface Temperature) in the WNP (Western North Pacific) has an influence on the genesis and passage of a tropical cyclone. The decadal mode was obtained by calculating the SST anomaly on the domain 150ºE-190ºE, and 5ºS-5ºN. Such decadal variation was subsequently analyzed to confirm that it is a dominant mode in central Pacific region. Next, after classifying the years into relatively positive years and relatively negative years, the characteristics of tropical cyclone in each year, such as a genesis and passage frequency, were investigated. Compared to the relatively negative years, during the relatively positive years, the location of tropical cyclone genesis was biased toward South-Eastern region, while the characteristics of the cyclone were more distinct during late season of the year from September to December than in mid season from June to August. Examining the movement passage through the observation of passage frequency, there was a significant difference between positive year and negative year in their passages at a 90% confidence level. Moreover, the number of tropical cyclone, maximum wind, and life time also showed higher values in positive years than in negative years. These features were confirmed by examining the 850hPa cyclonic flow field, vorticity field, and vertical wind shear field, all of which contribute to the genesis of a tropical cyclone.
Abstract
This study confirms that a decadal variation of the SST (Sea Surface Temperature) in the WNP (Western North Pacific) has an influence on the genesis and passage of a tropical cyclone. The decadal mode was obtained by calculating the SST anomaly on the domain 150ºE-190ºE, and 5ºS-5ºN. Such decadal variation was subsequently analyzed to confirm that it is a dominant mode in central Pacific region. Next, after classifying the years into relatively positive years and relatively negative years, the characteristics of tropical cyclone in each year, such as a genesis and passage frequency, were investigated. Compared to the relatively negative years, during the relatively positive years, the location of tropical cyclone genesis was biased toward South-Eastern region, while the characteristics of the cyclone were more distinct during late season of the year from September to December than in mid season from June to August. Examining the movement passage through the observation of passage frequency, there was a significant difference between positive year and negative year in their passages at a 90% confidence level.
