摘要

Subtidal motions, such as large-scale circulations and mesoscale eddies, frequently occupy on the propagation path of internal waves in the ocean. Through solving a modified Taylor-Goldstein equation with subtidal currents, density stratification, and the earth rotation, this study investigates the impacts of subtidal motions and the earth rotation on the modal characteristics of the semidiurnal internal tide (SIT) based on long-term mooring measurements in the northern South China Sea (SCS). It is shown that the modal characteristics of the SIT are significantly influenced by the time-varying subtidal current and density stratification associated with energetic subtidal motions in the northern SCS. The earth rotation plays a minor role in modulating the modal characteristics of the SIT in the northern SCS, but it becomes effective at middle and high latitudes when strong subtidal current shear associated with subtidal motions is present. Moreover, the strong subtidal current associated with subtidal motions may significantly affect the critical latitude of the SIT. The observational results reported here will help to improve our understanding of the modal characteristics of internal tides under the influence of subtidal motions in global oceans.
