An Investigation of the Unsymmetrical Wind Field in Typhoon No. 8616
8616号台风风场非对称研究

The dynamics and energy characteristics of the typhoon No. 8616 (Wayne) are calculated and analysed. The results show that the speed patterns of the typhoon are unsymmetrical and the maximum cyclonic - backing wind is in the right-front guadrant. The vertical wind shear decreases with the growth of the typhoon. The strongest inflow appears below 300 hPa in the southern part of the typhoon and the maximum inflow occurs near the 700 hPa level.
