A harmonic analyzed parameterization of tide-induced mixing for ocean models
WEI Zexun, SUN Junchuan, TENG Fei, XU Tengfei, WANG Yonggang, XU Xiaoqing, FANG Guohong
2018, 37(7): 1-7. doi: 10.1007/s13131-018-1239-8
Abstract:
The tide-induced mixing plays an important role in the regulation of ocean circulation. Numerical simulation of continental shelf circulation is found to exhibit an unreasonable vertical thermohaline structure without consideration of tide effects. I...
Relationships between intensity of the Kuroshio current in the East China Sea and the East Asian winter monsoon
YIN Ming, LI Xin, XIAO Ziniu, LI Chongyin
2018, 37(7): 8-19. doi: 10.1007/s13131-018-1240-2
Abstract:
Based on satellite altimeter and reanalysis data, this paper studies the relationships between the intensity of the Kuroshio current in the East China Sea (ECS) and the East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM). The mechanisms of their possible interaction ar...

Methane seepage intensities traced by sulfur isotopes of pyrite and gypsum in sediment from the Shenhu area, South China Sea
ZHANG Mei, LU Hongfeng, GUAN Hongxiang, LIU Lihua, WU Daidai, WU Nengyou
2018, 37(7): 20-27. doi: 10.1007/s13131-018-1241-1
Abstract:
The northern slope of the South China Sea is a gas-hydrate-bearing region related to a high deposition rate of organic-rich sediments co-occurring with intense methanogenesis in subseafloor environments. Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) coupled w...

The architecture of the lower parts of submarine canyons on the western Nigerian continental margin
JIMOH Rasheed Olayinka, TANG Yong, LI Jiabiao, AWOSIKA Larry Folajimi, LI He, AKINNIGBAGE Edward Akintoye, ADELEYE Adedayo Oluwaseun
2018, 37(7): 28-40. doi: 10.1007/s13131-018-1242-0
Abstract:
Multi-beam, sub-bottom and multichannel seismic data acquired from the western Nigerian continental margin are analysed and interpreted to examine the architectural characteristics of the lower parts of the submarine canyons on the margin. The presen...
Rare earth elements and yttrium in ferromanganese deposits from the South China Sea: distribution, composition and resource considerations
ZHONG Yi, CHEN Zhong, GONZALEZ Francisco Javier, ZHENG Xufeng, LI Gang, LUO Yun, MO Aibin, XU Antao, WANG Shuhong
2018, 37(7): 41-54. doi: 10.1007/s13131-018-1205-5
Abstract:
Ferromanganese nodules and crusts contain relatively high concentration of rare earth elements (REE) and yttrium (REY), with a growing interest in exploitation as an alternative to land-based REY resources. On the basis of comprehensive geochemical a...

The dispersion of surface contaminants by Stokes drift in random waves
HUANG Guoxing, LAW Wing-Keung Adrian
2018, 37(7): 55-61. doi: 10.1007/s13131-018-1243-z
Abstract:
Contaminants that are floating on the surface of the ocean are subjected to the action of random waves. In the literature, it has been asserted by researchers that the random wave action will lead to a dispersion mechanism through the induced Stokes ...
Numerical modeling investigation on turbulent oscillatory flow over a plane rough bed composed by randomly arrayed particles
ZHOU Zhibo, ZHANG Jinfeng, ZHANG Qinghe, LIU Run
2018, 37(7): 62-68. doi: 10.1007/s13131-018-1244-y
Abstract:
A three-dimensional numerical model is established to simulate the turbulent oscillatory boundary layer over a fixed and rough bed composed by randomly arrayed solid spheres based on the lattice Boltzmann method and the large eddy simulation model. T...
A model for calculating the erosion distance of soft sea cliff under wave loading
CHANG Fangqiang, SHU Zhonglei
2018, 37(7): 69-77. doi: 10.1007/s13131-018-1245-x
Abstract:
A model for calculating the erosion distance of soft sea cliff under wave loading is established based on the erosion mechanism of soft sea cliff under wave loading and for considering wave hydrodynamic and sea cliff material parameters. The model is...
High-resolution bottom detection algorithm for a multibeam echo-sounder system with a U-shaped array
JIANG Ying, YANG Zhiguo, LIU Zongwei, YANG Chunmei
2018, 37(7): 78-84. doi: 10.1007/s13131-017-1246-9
Abstract:
High-resolution approaches such as multiple signal classification and estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques (ESPRIT) are currently employed widely in multibeam echo-sounder (MBES) systems for sea floor bathymetry, where...
An analytical approximation of focusing-wave-induced load on a semi-submerged cylinder
HU Zhe, ZHANG Xiaoying, LI Yan, LI Xiaowen
2018, 37(7): 85-104. doi: 10.1007/s13131-018-1247-8
Abstract:
Owing to the complexity of the physical mechanisms of rouge waves, the theoretical study of the rogue-wave-structure interaction problems still makes little progress. However, for regular-shaped structures, it is possible to give a theoretical analys...
