| Abstract |
Internal solitary waves (ISWs) in the South China Sea (SCS) are considerably modulated by the background currents. In this study, a three-dimensional high-resolution non-hydrostatic model is configured to investigate how the Kuroshio influences the generation and evolution of ISWs in the northern SCS. Three runs are conducted, including one control experiment without the Kuroshio and two sensitivity experiments with the Kuroshio in different paths. In the Luzon Strait (LS), the Kuroshio reduces the westward baroclinic energy flux radiated into the SCS, resulting in weakened ISWs. In the SCS basin, the background currents further refract the ISWs. With the leaping Kuroshio, the A-waves have longer crest lines but lower amplitudes compared with those in the control run. In contrast, the B-waves are less affected by the leaping Kuroshio. In the presence of looping Kuroshio, the wave refraction caused by the intrusion currents in the SCS basin results in the weakest amplitudes and energy but the widest crest lines of ISWs. Moreover, the energy of the A-waves exhibits double-peak structure along the crest lines. The crest lines of the B-waves extend to 19.5° N, which are more south than those in summer. These results highlight the importance of the Kuroshio on the 3D features of ISWs in the SCS. |
