Tropical cyclone genesis over the South China Sea
G Wang, J Su, Y Ding, D Chen - Journal of Marine Systems, 2007 - Elsevier
The South China Sea (SCS) is among areas in the Northwest Pacific most frequented by
tropical cyclones (TCs) with intensity reaching a tropical storm or stronger. It is also an area
of significant TC genesis. In this study, TC genesis in SCS and its monsoonal variability for
1948–2003 are analyzed. Altogether, in May–September (southwest monsoon period) 157
TC geneses have occurred north of 12° N in SCS, while in October–December (northeast
monsoon period) 64 out of 65 TC geneses have happened south of 18° N. It is found that the …
