用在 20042007 在四连续晚夏天早的秋天巡航期间取样的水道学的数据,沿着在台湾岛的庇护的横断的垂直层化被分析调查上面的海洋回答到山论地导致的偶极子风应力卷屈(WSC ) 。结果显示那混合层深度(MLD ) 和它与深度在不同的本地风 forcings 下面改变了的 thermocline 的关系。沿着从 2004 ~ 2007 巡航的横断的平均 MLD 分别地是 18.5, 30.7, 39.2 和 24.5 m。沿着横断的 MLD 显著地加深了并且在 2005 和 2006 导致了 thermocline 通风,而通风没发生在 2004 和 2007。估计显示那摩擦的风速度是在 MLD 变化的主要因素。到大度,摩擦的风速度并且 Ekman 抽的联合效果在巡航期间为 MLD 的空间模式负责。
Using hydrographic data sampled during four successive late summer-early autumn cruises in 2004-2007, vertical stratification along transects in the lee of Taiwan Island was analyzed to investigate upper ocean responses to orographically induced dipole wind stress curl (WSC). Results indicate that mixed-layer depth (MLD) and its relationship with thermocline depth varied under different local wind forcings. Average MLD along the transects from the 2004 to 2007 cruises were 18.5, 30.7, 39.2 and 24.5 m, respectively. The MLD along the transects deepened remarkably and resulted in thermocline ventilation in 2005 and 2006, whereas ventilation did not occur in 2004 and 2007. Estimates indicate that frictional wind speed was the major factor in MLD variations. To a large degree, the combined effects of frictional wind speed and Ekman pumping are responsible for the spatial pattern of MLD during the cruises.
