On the Upper Oceanic Heat Budget in the South China Sea: Annual Cycle


doi: 10.1007/s00376-999-0036-x

  • The upper oceanic heat budget in the South China Sea (SCS) is studied on the basis of ocean surface heal flux, upper sea heat storage and horizontal oceanic heat transport calculated from Comprehensive Ocean and Atmosphere Data Set. Several useful conclusions can be obtained and they are helpful for us to understand the climatologically thermal condition in the SCS. The annual variation of net heat budget reflects the adjustment and sudden change of the monsoon circulation over the SCS. The variation of upper oceanic heat storage of the SCS is tightly connected with the oceanic heat transport as well as the vertical movement in the SCS and so on.
