May 5, 2015 · In the study, the researchers observed internal waves that break in the South China Sea. These are the largest waves produced in the world’s oceans, producing up to 10,000 times the amount of turbulence typically found in the open ocean. The study, “The formation and fate of internal waves in the South China Sea,” appears in the May 7 ...

Feb 2, 2012 · Internal solitary waves (ISWs) are the nonlinear large amplitude waves existing in the oceanic pycnocline. They are very active in the northern South China Sea (SCS). With more and more remote sensing data, in situ observational data and the development of the numerical simulation technology, a number of studies on the characteristics, the source site, the generation, and evolution of the ISWs in the SCS are reported. In this paper, earlier studies on the ISWs in the SCS are summarized and ...

Feb 23, 2021 · ENSO regulated the South China Sea wave's inter-annual variation through the wind in the northeast of the South China Sea and the ocean propagation process (swell) pushed the associated signals to the southwest of the South China Sea (Wang et al., 2020). In other words, the increase in the SWH in the Beibu Gulf may be caused by the swell from ...
