South China Sea, arm of the western Pacific Ocean that borders the Southeast Asian mainland. It is bounded on the northeast by the Taiwan Strait (by which it is connected to the East China Sea); on the east by Taiwan and the Philippines; on the southeast

Maximum credible currents were specified based on Richardson number stability limits. Theoretical modelling has produced descriptions of foliton internal velocity fields that match measured data reasonably well. The model has been used to analyze riser and cable loads and the behaviour of a shuttle ...
Jiaolong, China's manned submersible, is about to dive into the South China Sea, May 6, 2017. Jiaolong explored submarine turbidity currents in the South China Sea on Saturday. Three crew members in the submersible conducted surveys and sampling and measured environmental parameters. They brought ...
Numerical simulation of interaction between the Kuroshio and the currents in the northern South China Sea. LI,R. F. - 《Progress in Natural Sciences》 - 1996 - 被引量: 27 An extreme internal solita...
Some investigation results about currents, eddies and upwellings in the South China Sea (abbreviated as SCS) ,and differnt viewpoints about some problems(such as the Branch of the Kuroshio in Taiwan Strait)are briefly reviewed in this paper. It is pointed out that the characteristics of basic ...
Sedimentation is controlled largely by moderate tidal currents depositing fine-grained sediments. The bay is shallow (mean water depth, about 9 m) and characterized by a semi-diurnal tide flowing largely North and South. The maximum spring tidal range is up to 350 cm with a mean of 195 cm...
The circulation in the South China Sea was thought to be mainly wind-driven current controlled by monsoons. But recent observations reveal two currents in opposite directions, namely the northeastward South China Sea Warm Current (SCSWC) and the southwestward Kuroshio South China Sea Branch (KSCSB...
This upper water column structure implies the intensification of equatorial Pacific warm currents and the initial formation of the western Pacific warm pool (WPWP) during the early Late Miocene. The consistent pattern of south-north thermocline evolution and the synchronous disappearance of Globoquad...
