RISImpact 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 ...
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 ...
On the Formation of a Subsurface Weakly Sheared Laminar Layer and an Upper Thermocline Strongly Sheared Turbulent Layer in the Eastern Equatorial Pacific: Interplays of Multiple-Time-Scale Equatorial Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The origins of an observed weakly sheared nonturbulent (laminar) layer (WSL), and a strongly sheared turbulent layer above the Equatorial Undercurrent core (UCL) in the eastern equatorial Pacific are studied, based mainly ...
Thermal Vacuum and Swivel Table Tests of a CMG and Fault Mechanism Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Thermal vacuum and swivel table tests of a control moment gyroscope (CMG) are designed and the start-up hesitation and rotation break of the CMG are analyzed. In order to study the fault mechanism, a thermo-structural ...
