Abstract:
Analysis of tidal current and sea level has been made based on the observations from the summer of 2006 to the winter of 2007, respectively. The result indicates that a two-layer structure of residual current exists in summer, with its upper layer go...

Abstract:
Based on the z-coordinate ocean model HAMSOM, we introduced the internal-tide viscosity term and applied the model to numerically investigate the M2 internal tide generation and propagation in the Luzon Strait (LS). The results show that (1) in the u...

Abstract:
Four sources of surface heat flux (SHF) and the satellite remote sensing sea surface temperature (SST) data are combined to investigate the heat budget closure of the Huanghai Sea (HS) in winter. It is found that heat loss occurs all over the HS duri...
