Research Interests
Theoretical and numerical simulation of the South China Sea deep circulation;
Ocean circulation and climate;
Ocean data assimilation technology.
(1) South China Sea Circulation: It is revealed that the deep circulation in the South China Sea (SCS) is driven by the Luzon Strait deepwater overflow, and the dynamic mechanism of the cyclonic structure of the SCS deep circulation is clarified. The SCS deep circulation exhibits significant seasonal variability, and its seasonal signals are dominated by the seasonal variation of the Luzon Strait deepwater overflow rather than that of the upper ocean. It is verified that the north/south shift of the Vietnam offshore current axis is well consistent with the intensity of the SCS summer monsoon on the interannual scale, and the meridional difference in upper ocean thickness plays a critical role in maintaining such consistency. The clockwise spatial structure of the shallow meridional overturning circulation in the SCS during winter is revealed, and the driving effects of subduction in the northern SCS and Ekman pumping along the Vietnam coast are clarified.
(2) Variational Data Assimilation Technology:Based on the MOM model and its corresponding adjoint module, a series of technical issues in ocean data assimilation using the adjoint method are systematically discussed, providing a theoretical basis and technical support for the optimal simulation of the marine environment. And, the seasonal variability of water exchange in the Tsushima Strait and Luzon Strait is further optimized.
