Abstract While modelling studies suggest that mesoscale eddies strengthen the subduction of mode waters, this eddy effect has never been observed in field. Here we report results from a field campaign March 2014 captured effects on mode-water south Kuroshio Extension east Japan. The experiment deployed 17 Argo floats an anticyclonic (AC) with enhanced daily sampling. Analysis over 3,000 hydrographic profiles following AC reveals potential vorticity and apparent oxygen utilization...
Abstract The summer Eurasian westerly jet is reported to become weaker and wavier, thus promoting the frequent weather extremes. However, primary driver of changing stream remains in debate, mainly due regionality seasonality jet. Here we report a sharp increase, by approximately 140%, interannual variability summertime East Asian (EAJ) since end twentieth century. Such interdecadal change induces considerable changes large-scale circulation pattern across Eurasia, consequently climate...
Abstract In Spring 2014, two subthermocline eddies (STEs) were observed by rapid‐sampling Argo floats in the subtropical northwestern Pacific (STNWP). The first one is a warm, salty, and oxygen‐poor lens, with its temperature/salinity /dissolved oxygen ( T / S /DO) anomalies reaching 1.16°C/0.21 practical salinity unit (psu)/−29.9 µmol/kg, respectively, near 26.62 σ 0 surface. other cold, fresh, oxygen‐rich /DO −1.95°C/−0.34 psu/88.0 26.54 vertical extent of water mass warm (cold) STE about...
Abstract A severe coral bleaching event occurred in the Beibu Gulf during boreal summer 2020. This was caused by record-breaking warm sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies northern South China Sea (NSCS). Anomalous anticyclones (AACs) over NSCS linked to Indian Ocean warming and La Niña induced extreme warming. In May–July 2020, anomalous anticyclonic-shear easterlies appeared tropical western Pacific as a Kelvin wave response These resulted an AAC northwestern via Ekman dynamics. Besides,...
Abstract Ocean chlorophyll‐a concentration is a reliable indicator of phytoplankton biomass that plays an important role in controlling the marine ecosystem. Here, we investigated interannual variations sea surface (SSC) Yellow Sea and underlying mechanisms with 22 yr (1998–2019) satellite ocean color observations. Results indicated SSC showed positive trend (0.039 mg m −3 −1 on average) during 1998–2010 negative (−0.058 2011–2019. Similar trends occurred four seasons. These had larger...
The hourly L2-level chlorophyll-a (CHL-a) concentration spatial energy spectra of GOCI-II from 2021 to 2023 are employed investigate the characteristics CHL-a spectrum slopes in three regions East China Sea, namely nearshore, offshore, and open ocean. seasonal trends also examined for nearshore offshore regions. It is observed that −2 at scales larger than 5 km, whereas smaller scales, they −5/3, −1, −0.3 region sea, respectively. On consistent with surface quasi-geostrophic (sQG) theory,...
Using satellite-observed data and reanalysis data, we studied the spatiotemporal variation characteristics dynamic mechanisms of thermal fronts in Beibu Gulf (TFIBG). TFIBG occur December, reach their strongest point January following year, then gradually weaken until they completely disappear May. Their formation is related to bathymetry Gulf. In winter, seawater shallow-water areas (deep-water areas) cools down more (less), Ekman currents concurrently transport warm water from central...
Due to the complex coastline and topography, changes of temperature circulation in global shelf seas caused by typhoons have significantly region-specific three-dimensional structures. As one temperate semi-enclosed sea, Yellow Sea is highly susceptible summer. In August 2012 Typhoon Damrey moving northwestward over was observed cause significant bottom warming southern coastal waters Shandong Peninsula, but its impacts on whole underlying dynamics are still unclear. Using observations...
Abstract Anticyclonic eddies (AEs) trap and transport the North Pacific subtropical mode water (STMW), but evolution of STMW trapped in AEs has not been fully studied due to lack eddy‐tracking subsurface observations. Here we analyze profiles from special‐designed Argo floats that follow two STMW‐trapping for more than a year. The enhanced daily sampling by these swirling around enables an unprecedented investigation into structure STMW. In AEs, upper (lower) thermocline domes up (concaves...
Abstract Hypoxia has been observed worldwide and causes great damage to marine ecosystems. In the northeastern mariculture areas of Shandong Peninsula, summer oxygen depletion even hypoxia have in bottom layer, but underlying dynamics are still poorly understood. current study, physical controls variations layer concentrations their interannual Peninsula were first investigated using situ observations collected during 2016–2020. Over past 5 years, dissolved (DO) ranged from 0.8 13.0 mg L −1...
