RISEulerian and Lagrangian Statistics in the South China Sea as Deduced from Surface Drifters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ulerian and Lagrangian statistics of the surface flows over the South China Sea (SCS) are investigated based on observations of satellite-tracked Lagrangian drifters of the Surface Velocity Program. Although the dataset ...
Impact of Tidal Mixing on Water Mass Transformation and Circulation in the South China Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: sing a high-resolution regional ocean model, the impact of tidal mixing on water mass transformation and circulation in the South China Sea (SCS) is investigated through a set of numerical experiments with different ...
Adjusting the Wind Stress Drag Coefficient in Storm Surge Forecasting Using an Adjoint Technique
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: three-dimensional ocean model and its adjoint model are used to adjust the drag coefficient in the calculation of wind stress for storm surge forecasting. A number of identical twin experiments (ITEs) with different error ...
The Track and Accompanying Sea Wave Forecasts of the Super Typhoon Mangkhut (2018) by a Real-time Regional Forecast System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The track and accompanying sea wave forecasts of the typhoon Mangkhut (2018) by a real-time regional forecasting system are assessed in this study. The real-time regional forecasting system shows a good track forecast skill ...
On the Estimation of Lagrangian Diffusivity: Influence of Nonstationary Mean Flow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ddy?mean flow decomposition is crucial to the estimation of Lagrangian diffusivity based on drifter data. Previous studies have shown that inhomogeneous mean flow induces shear dispersion that increases the estimated ...
Application of Scale-Selective Data Assimilation to Regional Climate Modeling and Prediction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method referred to as scale-selective data assimilation (SSDA) is designed to inject the large-scale components of the atmospheric circulation from a global model into a regional model to improve regional climate simulations ...
Reconciling Lagrangian Diffusivity and Effective Diffusivity in Contour-Based Coordinates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe present study reconciles theoretical differences between the Lagrangian diffusivity and effective diffusivity in a transformed spatial coordinate based on the contours of a quasi-conservative tracer. In the ...
Synergistic Effect of Warming in the Tropical Indian Ocean and North Tropical Atlantic on the Central-Pacific Type of La Niña Based on Observations and CMIP5

Tidal Mixing in the South China Sea: An Estimate Based on the Internal Tide Energetics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: y taking into account the contributions of both locally and remotely generated internal tides, the tidal mixing in the Luzon Strait (LS) and the South China Sea (SCS) is investigated through internal-tide simulation and ...
Characteristics of the Near-Surface Currents in the Indian Ocean as Deduced from Satellite-Tracked Surface Drifters. Part I: Pseudo-Eulerian Statistics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: sing the 1985?2013 record of near-surface currents from satellite-tracked drifters, the pseudo-Eulerian statistics of the near-surface circulation in the Indian Ocean (IO) are analyzed. It is found that the distributions ...
