Abstract
The Typhoon Herb which invaded Taiwan on 31 July 1996 caused enormous property damage and life loss. Radars revealed that the spiral rainband propagated outward from the eyewallat time when the typhoon was just offshore and near the radar sites. In this study, radar data of CWB's WSR-88D and CAA's C-band Doppler radar are used to analyze the structure and the evolution of the spiral rainband. The ground-based velocity-track-display (GBVTD) technique is also used to study the primary circulation characteristics before its landfall.
