Analysis of the Distribution and Seasonal Variability of the South China Sea Water Masses Based on the K-means Cluster Method
Influenced by local mixing and coastal runoff, water masses in the South China Sea degenerate significantly. The K-means algorithm is used to classify the water masses based on WOD13 temperature and salinity observations from 1966 to 2013 because its principle is consistent with the definition of a...
