Why are the names of typhoons always so beautiful? Is there anything particular about naming? Please explain in detail

The Central Meteorological Observatory started naming typhoons on January 1, 2000. Previously, my country has been using the tropical cyclone numbering system.

In order to facilitate communication between countries, the Economic and Social Council for Asia and the Pacific and the World Meteorological Organization Typhoon Committee have developed a unified typhoon naming system, consisting of 14 countries in the Asia-Pacific region, including Cambodia, China, North Korea, the United States and Vietnam. Member organizations in each country and region will provide 10 names, which will be recycled after approval by the relevant special meeting.

The 10 names chosen by our country for typhoon organizations fully reflect the national style. They are: Dragon King, Wukong, Jade Rabbit, Seahorse, Haiyan, Dujuan, Begonia, Dianmu, Poseidon and Fengshen. (Excerpted from the 2003 Beihai Tourism Window)

Naming of typhoons (knowledge)

In order to distinguish tropical cyclones, it is necessary to give them Give it a separate name. The earliest method to distinguish tropical cyclones was based on their location (mainly the longitude and latitude of the tropical cyclone center). This method is quite troublesome and often unsatisfactory. Until the early 19th century, some Spanish-speaking Caribbean islands named hurricanes based on the sacred calendar time of landfall. For example, three hurricanes struck Puerto Rico: Santa Ana on July 26, 1825, San Felipe in 1876, and September 13, 1928. In the late 19th century, Australian forecaster Clement Lange reportedly named tropical cyclones after politicians he hated. Later, military departments named tropical cyclones based on the alphabetical order of the English words (ABLE, BAKER, CHARLIE, etc.). During World War II, Americans named tropical cyclones after women. In the late 1970s, at the request of American feminist organizations, the naming list was expanded to use male and female names. The advantages of using nomenclature were gradually accepted in both spoken and written communication, especially in alarms. The name should be short, popular, and easy to remember, so as to facilitate the transmission of information to millions of people in tropical cyclone threat areas, and to avoid confusion when the same area is affected by more than one tropical cyclone at the same time. The practice soon became widespread throughout the Western Hemisphere.

In the 1970s, a naming system was adopted for all tropical cyclone-prone areas. Since the late 1970s, under the coordination of the World Meteorological Organization's regional tropical cyclone committees, the naming of tropical cyclones has become international. In most regions, tropical cyclone nomenclature (usually using male and female names interchangeably) is developed by the region's Tropical Cyclone Committee, whose more important task is to promote and coordinate tropical cyclone hazard reduction actions in the region. The specific practices vary from region to region. Designated meteorological centers are usually responsible for naming tropical cyclones in alphabetical order. Some regions use naming tables cyclically, some regions develop new naming tables from time to time, and some regions start from scratch after using up their naming tables. If a tropical cyclone is notorious, such as causing serious casualties or causing huge property damage, the name of the tropical cyclone will be removed from the naming list and replaced by another name of the same gender, with the same first letter . Some areas use 4-digit numbers to name tropical cyclones. The first two digits are the year, and the last two digits are the sequence number of the tropical cyclone in that year. Some also add a geographical indicator code, for example: No. 1 in the Bay of Bengal in 1991 The tropical storm was named BOB 9109 (BOB is the abbreviation of Bay of Bengal in English). The 25th typhoon in 1990 was named 9025. Some countries have developed nomenclature tables for their own use. For example, the United States has developed a nomenclature table for the northwest Pacific and central North Pacific, and the Philippines has also developed a nomenclature table for typhoons in the northwest Pacific. The names used by the Guam Joint Typhoon Warning Center for northwest Pacific typhoons are often adopted by other countries in the region.

Most of the members of the Typhoon Committee come from countries and regions affected by typhoons. For many years, the Typhoon Committee has had a system for numbering typhoons, that is, the Tokyo Regional Professional Meteorological Center-Typhoon Center is responsible for numbering tropical cyclones that reach tropical storm intensity.

According to the resolution of the 31st session of the Typhoon Committee, a new tropical cyclone naming method will be implemented from January 1, 2000. This method will be used in communiqués issued by Typhoon Committee members to the international community. It is also used by members when issuing tropical cyclone warnings in their local languages. The Typhoon Committee will continue to use tropical cyclone numbers.

my country has always adopted the tropical cyclone numbering method. Tropical cyclones that occur near the center of the northwest Pacific and the South China Sea west of 180 degrees longitude and north of the equator are classified according to their maximum average wind speed of level 8 or above. They are numbered in the order they are generated. For example, Tropical Storm No. 9608 is the eighth tropical cyclone generated in the above sea areas in 1996. When it develops into a severe tropical storm, it is called Severe Tropical Storm No. 9608. When it continues to develop into a typhoon, it is called Typhoon No. 9608. . Of course, when it weakened into a tropical storm, it was also called Tropical Storm No. 9608. When a tropical cyclone weakens into a tropical depression or changes into an extratropical cyclone, its numbering is stopped.

From January 1, 2000, when my country’s Central Meteorological Observatory issues tropical cyclone warnings, in addition to continuing to use tropical cyclone numbers, tropical cyclone names will also be used.

Nomenclature of Tropical Cyclones in the Northwest Pacific and South China Sea

The 30th Session of the Typhoon Committee held in Hong Kong, China from November 25 to December 1, 1997 decided to name tropical cyclones in the Northwest Pacific and South China Sea. The proposal to adopt an Asian-style name for the cyclone was studied, and the Typhoon Research Coordination Group (TRCG) was assigned to study the details of implementation. After a year of hard work, the TRCG has put forward recommendations for the naming of tropical cyclones in the northwest Pacific and South China Sea. After heated discussions, the 31st Session of the Typhoon Committee held in Manila, Philippines, from December 1 to 7, 1998, agreed to the tropical cyclone naming scheme proposed by TRCG in the northwest Pacific and South China Sea, and decided that the new tropical cyclone naming method would be adopted from January 1, 2000. Start execution on the day.

The Typhoon Committee’s naming list*** has 140 names, including Cambodia, China, North Korea, Hong Kong, China, Macau, China, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Federated States of Micronesia, and the Philippines in the Asia-Pacific region. , Korea, Thailand, the United States and Vietnam are available.

The Typhoon Committee name list will be used in forecasts, warnings and bulletins issued through the international media and to the international aviation and navigation community. It will also be used by members when issuing tropical cyclone warnings in local languages. This will help people to be more alert to approaching tropical cyclones and increase the effectiveness of warnings. The Typhoon Committee will continue to use tropical cyclone numbers.

In order to avoid unnecessary confusion caused by multiple translators, the China Central Meteorological Observatory, the Hong Kong Observatory, and the Macao Geophysical and Meteorological Observatory of China have determined a unified set of Chinese translations after consultation. Starting from January 1, 2000, when the Central Meteorological Observatory issues tropical cyclone warnings, in addition to continuing to use tropical cyclone numbers, tropical cyclone names will also be used. The name of Tropical Cyclone No. 1 in 2000 was "Davi", provided by Cambodia.

Nomenclature of tropical cyclones (typhoons) in the northwest Pacific and South China Sea

Typhoon is a type of tropical cyclone, and tropical cyclone refers to a type of low pressure formed in the tropics. It is constantly rotating and accompanied by strong winds and heavy rainfall. Tropical cyclones are divided into four types according to the wind strength near their center: those with central winds at level 7 or below are called tropical depressions, levels 8 to 9 are called tropical storms, levels 10 to 11 are called severe tropical storms, and levels 12 and 12 The above are called typhoons. These four types of tropical cyclones often transform into each other during their development.

According to the resolution of the 31st session of the Typhoon Committee held in Manila, Philippines from December 1 to 7, 1998, from January 1, 2000, Asian-style names will be used for the northwest Atlantic and The naming of tropical cyclones generated in the South China Sea is intended to help people become more alert to tropical cyclones and enhance the effectiveness of warnings. At the same time, the original tropical cyclone number will be retained. This method will be used in communiqués issued by Typhoon Committee members to the international community. It is also used by members when issuing tropical cyclone warnings in their local languages.

The naming list of tropical cyclones in the Northwest Pacific and South China Sea adopted by the 31st Typhoon Committee has 140 names, including Cambodia, China, North Korea, Hong Kong, China, Macau, Japan, and 14 members including Laos, Malaysia, Federated States of Micronesia, Philippines, South Korea, Thailand, United States and Vietnam provided (each member provided 10 names). The 140 names are divided into 10 groups; the 14 names in each group (one name for each member) are arranged in alphabetical order for each member. The naming table is used sequentially and cyclically.

According to regulations, a tropical cyclone keeps its name throughout its life, whether it strengthens or weakens. Most of these names come from legendary stories that are well-known in the countries and regions where they are provided. The names provided by China are: "Dragon King", "Jade Rabbit", "Wind God", "Cuckoo", "Haima", "Wukong", "Haiyan", "Poseidon", "Dian Mu" and "Begonia".

While typhoons harm humans, they also protect humans. Typhoons bring fresh water resources to mankind, greatly alleviating global water shortages. A typhoon that is not too large in diameter can bring 3 billion tons of precipitation when it makes landfall. In addition, typhoons also maintain a relative balance of heat and cold in various parts of the world. The climate in the equatorial region is hot. If typhoons had not dissipated the heat, the tropics would be hotter, the frigid zones would be colder, and the temperate zones would disappear from the earth. In a word, it is impossible to have too many typhoons, nor is it possible to have none.

Typhoon is a type of tropical cyclone. Meteorologically, typhoons specifically refer to tropical cyclones that occur in the western North Pacific (west of the international date line, including the South China Sea) and have near-center maximum sustained wind speeds of level 12 or above (ie, more than 32.6 meters per second).

As for tropical cyclones that occur in the Atlantic Ocean or the eastern North Pacific and reach the same intensity, they are called hurricanes.

According to the International Meteorological Organization, tropical cyclones occurring in the western North Pacific and the South China Sea are classified into five categories. The classifications and names published by various places are sometimes slightly different.

Because multiple typhoons may appear on the ocean at the same time, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center set up by the U.S. military on Guam (now moved to Hawaii) used to name each typhoon during World War II. The original names were all female, but male names were added in 1979. Since 2000, the naming of typhoons has been changed to the Typhoon Committee of the International Meteorological Organization. The 14 members of the Typhoon Committee (China, North Korea, South Korea, Japan, Cambodia, Vietnam, etc.) each provide 10 names for the current names of typhoons in the Northwest Pacific and South China Sea, divided into five sets of lists.

The actual naming work is left to the Japan Meteorological Agency (Tokyo Regional Professional Meteorological Center) in the region. Whenever the Japan Meteorological Agency determines a tropical cyclone in the northwest Pacific or the South China Sea to have tropical storm intensity, it is given a name based on the list and a four-digit number. The first two digits in the number are the year, and the last two digits are the order in which tropical storms were generated in that year. For example, 0312, which is Tropical Storm No. 12 in 2003 (when it reaches severe tropical storm intensity, it is called Severe Tropical Storm No. 12; when it reaches typhoon intensity, it is called Typhoon No. 12), its English name is KROVANH. The Chinese name is "Kerowang"; 0313 is Tropical Storm No. 13 in 2003, the English name is DUJUAN, and the Chinese name is "Dujuan". The Chinese name of the typhoon was determined by the my country Meteorological Administration after consultation with the meteorological departments of Hong Kong and Macao. (Xue Xiaole)
