Different vertical heat transport induced by submesoscale motions in the shelf and open sea of the northwestern South China Sea
Submesoscale currents are known to be associated with strong vertical velocities (O (10) m/day), regulating the redistributions of energy and matter balances. The northern South China Sea (SCS) is fulfilled with submesoscale motions, which might induce strong vertical heat transport (VHT). We set up...
