Using satellite imagery and tide-generating body force, 327 groups of NLIWs were identified from 93 MODIS images collected between 2015 and 2019 and classified into three distinct types based on their propagation directions—Type-A (∼42%), Type-B (∼38%), and Type-C (∼20%)—each originating from different generation sites. Type-B NLIWs were found to originate from a newly identified site near southwestern Fukue Island reported here for the first time, whereas Type-A and Type-C originated from the northern Okinawa Trough and southwestern Jeju Island, respectively. Seasonal variations in NLIW propagation speed using historical CTD data revealed an increase in the speed from winter to spring and fall, peaking in summer due to strong stratification. Although spatial distribution varied by season, propagation was generally faster in the eastern region than in the western region attributed to deeper thermoclines and higher density gradients. During field observation in May 2015, the observed NLIWs had an amplitude of 5–6 m, a characteristic width of 380–450 m, southwestward propagating directions, and a speed of ∼0.54 m s<sup>−1</sup>. An empirical model, used to track and predict these waves, confirmed their generation locations from southwestern Fukue Island (Type-B) and indicated fast arrival speeds, influenced by time-varying stratification conditions during the stratification period.

We also compiled several published OC burial records from other river-dominated coastal margins. Our findings indicated that since the 1950s, the accumulation of terrestrial OC in central BS has shown a concurrent decline, as evidenced by a ∼50% decrease in terrigenous/aquatic ratio of <i>n</i>-alkanes (TAR), which accompanied by a significant reduction in sediment load due to the watershed human activities. More intense erosion and resuspension due to stronger hydrodynamic condition under the increasing frequency of winter storms could account for the observed sediment coarsening and concomitant increase of the degraded lignin and old-OC since the 1980s, suggesting that delta erosion-induced sediment redistribution could influence the selective transport and accumulation of the more woody allochthonous OC components. The temporal profiles of lignin records indicated a spatial heterogeneity of recent terrestrial OC burial among the large river-dominated coastal margins under the enhanced global delta erosion.

However, intense watershed human activities have significantly altered the POC transport and burial in the estuary-coast continuum. Here, we developed a novel parameterization scheme that incorporates grain-size constraints to investigate the dispersal and accumulation processes of POC off the Yellow River mouth during the water-sediment regulation scheme (WSRS) using a three-dimensional hydrodynamic model (FVCOM). The result shows that the model successfully captures the offshore transport and hydrodynamic sorting of POC, which leads to a progressive increase in POC content with offshore dispersion and significant variations in POC and sediment deposition across different isobaths. Rapid fluctuations in river discharge and sediment composition during WSRS stages result in noticeable differences in sedimentation patterns for sediment and POC. At the Water-regulation stage, distinct differences are observed in the distribution of riverine POC and sediment across various isobaths. In contrast, during the Sediment-regulation stage, these differences are significantly reduced due to the finer riverine sediment. Compared to the sediment-regulation, the Water-regulation plays a crucial role in enhancing the effective burial of POC. Coarse-grained sediment can form an armored layer that protects OC from disturbance. Additionally, increased runoff during this stage promotes the offshore transport of POC to a less energetic environment (&gt;10 m in depth). This study provides valuable insights into POC dynamics in high-turbidity estuarine and coastal environments. It underscores the importance of employing comprehensive modeling approaches to elucidate these complex processes.</p>","PeriodicalId":54340,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research-Oceans","volume":"129 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142764193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study particularly focused on temporal changes in whirlpools near their narrowest points. Modeling across the entire strait showed current velocity fields consistent with field observations, revealing significant temporal and spatial variability influenced by strait geometry and bathymetry. Whirlpools induced by tides were identified by setting a swirl strength threshold, with their centroids and equivalent spherical diameters pinpointed. It was observed that larger whirlpools, upon reaching critical size, were entrained and shifted with the tidal jet at about half its maximum velocity, while smaller vortices separated from the nearshore boundary layer remained nearly stationary. Focusing on the initiation of whirlpools and their relations with the coastline and bathymetry, a targeted field survey using a recreational drone measured surface flow fields in detail near the strait's narrowing region. During the ebb phase, shallow regions exhibited numerous smaller eddies due to increased energy dissipation, showing a dual power-law scaling in the size distribution of eddies, contrasting with the single scaling exponent observed during the flood phase.

Specifically, the predicted waveform is represented by a linear combination of training scenarios consisting of precomputed tsunami simulation results. To make such a prediction, a set of weight parameters that allow for appropriate scenario superposition is identified by the Bayesian update process. At the same time, the probability distribution of the weight parameters is obtained as reference information regarding the reliability of the prediction. Then, the waveforms are predicted by superposition with the estimated weight parameters multiplied by the waveforms of the corresponding scenarios. To validate the performance and benefits of the proposed method, a series of synthetic experiments are performed for the Shikoku coastal region of Japan with the subduction zone of the Nankai Trough. All tsunami data are derived from numerical simulations and divided into a training data set used as scenario superposition components and a test data set for an unknown real event.

The high degree of similarity across basins within the supergyre is maintained in the future scenario. The results suggest that by connecting the basins together at intermediate depth, the supergyre plays a key role in circulating and homogenizing the AAIW core properties.

Additionally, to investigate the influence of temperature on basal melt rates, a basic analysis correlating the basal melt rates with temperatures was conducted. Overall, the mass loss caused by basal melting of the six ice shelves has amounted to 27.86 ± 35.63 Gt yr<sup>−1</sup>, accounting for approximately 90% of the non-calving mass loss, equivalent to a sea level rise of 0.08 ± 0.10 mm yr<sup>−1</sup>, far exceeding surface mass loss and glacier calving. The two larger ice shelves, Petermann and 79° North (79N), have contributed to 85% of the basal melt mass loss. Regarding the spatiotemporal distribution, the basal melt rates have gradually decreased from near the grounding line to the ice shelf front.

This study investigated the impacts of CTWs generated by Typhoon In-fa (2021) on the northern South China Sea (NSCS) hydrodynamics using tide gauge observations, reanalysis data, and numerical model outputs. The analysis results indicate that the CTWs induced by Typhoon In-fa exhibit distinct characteristics in different phases of wave crest and trough. During the crest phase, coastal currents generated by CTWs flow opposite to the background circulation, while during the trough phase, they flow in the same direction. This process is accompanied by changes in cross-shore currents, such that during the crest phase of CTWs, the cross-shore currents are landward at the surface and seaward at the bottom, while during the trough phase of CTWs, the cross-shore currents become reversed. These changes further lead to downwelling in temperature, salinity, and density during the crest phase of CTWs, and upwelling during the trough phase of CTWs. Results from a linear CTW model demonstrated that the above characteristics agreed with the traditional CTW theory. Sensitivity experiments with the Regional Ocean Model System (ROMS) explored key factors influencing NSCS hydrodynamics, including local winds and CTWs from Typhoon In-fa.
