Abstract:
The origin of the Ryukyu Current (RC) and the formation of its subsurface velocity core were investigated using a 23-year (1993–2015) global Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) dataset. The volume transport of the RC comes from the Kuroshio eastwar...

Abstract:
The coupled ocean–atmosphere–wave–sediment transport (COAWST) modeling system is employed to investigate the role of wave-mixing playing in the upwelling off the west coast of Hainan Island (WHU). Waves, tides and sea surface temperature (SST) are re...

Abstract:
Buoy-based observations of wave spectra during the passage of three typhoons in the northern South China Sea are examined. Though most spectra of mature typhoon-generated waves are unimodal, double-peaked spectra account for a significant proportion ...

Abstract:
The estimation of ocean sound speed profiles (SSPs) requires the inversion of an acoustic field using limited observations. Such inverse problems are underdetermined, and require regularization to ensure physically realistic solutions. The empirical ...
