中文摘要：

有世界海洋的另外的部分的华南海，它的发行量和连接，提出重要科学问题。从未来的看法，我们要求在来未来要追求的十个关键研究方向，包括季风的通风，统治的海，水团形成/转变，加热/腌和水集中平衡， energetics 并且混合， mesoscale 旋涡，台风的角色，深发行量和古气候记录，和邻近的海洋， upwelling 和生态学系统，和对气候的反应的相互作用变化。

英文摘要：

South China Sea, its circulation and connection with other parts of the world oceans, poses important scientific questions. From the prospective view, we postulate ten key research directions to be pursued in the coming future, including ventilation of a monsoon dominated sea, water mass formation/transformation, heat/salt and water mass balance, energetics and mixing, mesoscale eddies, the role of typhoon, deep circulation and paleoclimate records, interaction with adjacent oceans, upwelling and ecology system, and response to climate changes.
