    Abstract:

    The comprehensive analysis based on multi-source satellite data, especially the microwave quantitative products, is the inevitable trend of typhoon monitoring using satellite remote sensing in the future. More objective comprehensive typhoon position and intensity determining technique is helpful to the overall improvement of typhoon intensity prediction. Taking the severe typhoon `FITOW' in 2013 as an example, the typhoon location and intensity determination results issued by several tropical cyclone forecasting organizations at home and abroad including the National Meteorological center of China (NMC/CMA), Shanghai Meteorological Bureau (SMB), Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA), Guam, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Environmental satellite Data and Information Service (NESDIS) and Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies (CIMSS) and the possible causes for the differences in issued results are compared and analyzed in detail. The analysis results show that the path prediction results issued by the above organizations are relatively consistent. The path prediction results in the daytime are more reliable than those at night. The wind speed prediction results issued by NMC, SMB, Guam and Regional and Mesoscale Meteorology Branch (RAMMB) are close to each other. The results from NMC have the least error and the highest accuracy. The results from SMB, Guam and RAMMB are in the second place. The results from CIMSS are most unstable. The results from JMA have a lower error on the whole. This analysis is of referential value to the typhoon prediction servicemen on duty.
