摘要

Abstract

The large-scale upper oceanic circulation in the South China Sea (SCS) during the northeast monsoon was investigated using a 2 1/2-layer model involving entrainment and detrainment at the interface between the upper mixed layer and the seasonal thermocline. The model allows heat fluxes at the surface and at the interface with a relaxation scheme

the temperatures of the two active layers can vary. The model basin is identical to the SCS lateral boundary with bottom topography of 50 m or more and is regarded as an enclosed basin by neglecting inflow and outflow through the straits

and is forced by the climatological wind stress of 12 calendar months. It was found that the upper oceanic currents in winter were mainly wind-driven. Most aspects of streams reported by observations were simulated with eddyresolving.
