An isopycnic-coordinate internal tide model and its application to the South China Sea 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A three-dimensional isopycnic-coordinate ocean model for the study of internal tides is presented. In this model, the ocean interior is viewed as a stack of isopycnic layers, each characterized by a constant density. The isopycnic coordinate performs well at tracking the depth variance of the thermocline, and is suitable for simulation of internal tides. This model consists of external and internal modes, and barotropic and baroclinic motions are calculated in the two modes, respectively. The capability of simulating internal tides was verified by comparing model results with an analytical solution. The model was then applied to the simulation of internal tides in the South China Sea (SCS) with the forcing of M2 and K1 tidal constituents. The results show that internal tides in the SCS are mainly generated in the Luzon Strait. The generated M2 internal tides propagate away in three different directions (branches). The branch with the widest tidal beam propagates eastward into the Pacific Ocean, the most energetic branch propagates westward toward Dongsha Island, and the least energetic branch propagates southwestward into the basin of the SCS. The generated K1 internal tides propagate in two different directions (branches). One branch propagates eastward into the Pacific Ocean, and the other branch propagates southwestward into the SCS basin. The steepening process of internal tides due to shoaling effects is described briefly. Meridionally integrated westward energy fluxes into the SCS are comparable to the meridionally integrated eastward energy fluxes into the Pacific Ocean. 相似文献

基于气候性温盐关系模型对Argo数据进行质量控制的研究 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
通过全球Argo计划的实施,我们获得了大量的温盐剖面数据。如果对浮标所在洋区的状况不是很了解,很难判断Argo浮标电导率传感器的工作状态及盐度数据的可靠性。为了避免错误的数据,必须对Argo进行有效的质量控制。国家海洋信息中心根据西北太平洋海区的南森站和CTD温盐数据,建立了高质量的气候学温盐数据集,对投放在西北太平洋海区的Argo浮标数据进行了相应的质量控制。结果表明,利用Argo浮标所在海区的气候学数据对Argo数据进行质控是比较有效的方法之一。 相似文献

Theoretical study of the effect of topographic height and width on generation of internal tides 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Internal tides generated upon two-dimensional Gaussian topographies of different sizes and steepness are investigated theoretically in a numerical methodology. Compared with previous theoretical works, this model is not restricted by weak topography, but provides an opportunity to examine the influence of topography. Ten typical cases are studied using different values of height and/or width of topography. By analyzing the baroclinic velocity fields, as well as their first eight baroclinic modes, it is found that the magnitude of baroclinic velocity increases and the vertical structure becomes increasingly complex as height increases or width decreases. However, when both height and width vary, while parameter s (the ratio of the topographic slope to the characteristic slope of the internal wave ray) remains invariant, the final pattern is influenced primarily by width. The conversion rate is studied and the results indicate that width determines where the conversion rate reaches a peak, and where it is positive or negative, whereas height affects only the magnitude. High and narrow topography is considerably more beneficial to converting energy from barotropic to baroclinic fields than low and wide topography. Furthermore, parameter s, which is an important non-dimensional parameter for internal tide generation, is not the sole parameter by which the baroclinic velocity fields and conversion rate are determined. 相似文献
