“According to the SCMP, the structure is 100 meters tall – nearly three times taller than the previous tallest weather station in the area. The station is designed to operate in harsh conditions such as super typhoons with wind speeds exceeding 200 km/h, high waves, high humidity, and high salinity seawater.”
“The station incorporates a sensor system that operates continuously 24/7 to collect real-time data on wind speed, temperature, humidity, and air pressure across multiple atmospheric layers.”
“The project was completed on June 17th off the coast of Yangjiang City, Guangdong Province. According to the plan, this monitoring station will be moved to a location approximately 80km from the shore, near the Leizhou Peninsula and Hainan Island – an area often in the path of typhoons…”
“In addition to the new monitoring station , China currently operates a system of approximately 40 buoys for monitoring oceanographic processes such as current fluctuations.”
