在 2011 年 9 月,台风 Nesat 忽略了在北华南海(SCS ) 记录电流和温度的仪器的一个系在的数组。A 在 Nesat 以后开始的在惯性附近的波浪(NIW ) 递给数组的 baroclinic 醒来。联系在惯性附近的水流加强表面、顺时针方向极化。NIW 的垂直范围到达了 300 m,在垂直范围被定义为水平在惯性附近的速度的最大的深度的地方 5 cm/s。当前的摆动每天(cpd ) 有 0.709 9 个周期的频率,它比本地惯性的频率高是 0.025f。NIW 基于在惯性附近的动能的进化有 10 d 的电子 folding 时间规模。在惯性附近的水流的深度领先阶段向下显示组速度和精力流动。估计的垂直阶段速度和组速度分别地是 0.27 和 0.08 cm/s,相应于 329 m 的垂直波长。一光谱分析表明 NIW 充当一个关键过程再分配台风 Nesat 注射的精力。一个正常模式和实验直角的功能分析显示第二个模式有 81% 的主导的变化贡献,并且相应水平阶段速度和波长分别地是 3.50 m/s 和 420 km。显著大水平阶段速度与地球的旋转相关,并且定量分析建议 NIW 与的阶段速度一 0.025f 蓝移动由 4.6 的一个因素压到内部严肃波浪的。
In September 2011, Typhoon Nesat passed over a moored array of instruments recording current and temperature in the northern South China Sea(SCS). A wake of baroclinic near-inertial waves(NIWs) commenced after Nesat passed the array. The associated near-inertial currents are surface-intensified and clockwise-polarized. The vertical range of NIWs reached 300 m, where the vertical range is defined as the maximum depth of the horizontal near-inertial velocity 5 cm/s. The current oscillations have a frequency of 0.709 9 cycles per day(cpd), which is 0.025 f higher than the local inertial frequency. The NIWs have an e-folding time-scale of 10 d based on the evolution of the near-inertial kinetic energy. The depth-leading phase of near-inertial currents indicates downward group velocity and energy flux. The estimated vertical phase velocity and group velocity are 0.27 and 0.08 cm/s respectively, corresponding to a vertical wavelength of 329 m. A spectral analysis reveals that NIWs act as a crucial process to redistribute the energy injected by Typhoon Nesat. A normal mode and an empirical orthogonal function analysis indicate that the second mode has a dominant variance contribution of 81%, and the corresponding horizontal phase velocity and wavelength are 3.50 m/s and 420 km respectively. The remarkable large horizontal phase velocity is relevant to the rotation of the earth, and a quantitative analysis suggests that the phase velocity of the NIWs with a blue-shift of 0.025 f overwhelms that of internal gravity waves by a factor of 4.6.
