英文摘要 | To investigate the dynamics of tidal and residual currents in a shallow bay with narrow bay mouth and large tidal flat area, this study conducted three sets of coastal acoustic tomography (CAT) observations at 13 stations in deep area of Jiaozhou Bay (JZB), China, from December 6–18, 2015. Thereafter, travel time difference data observed via CAT were assimilated into a barotropic tidal model to realize an extrapolated study in tidal flats. The root mean square difference was 6.5 cm/s between assimilation and acoustic Doppler current profile data. Harmonic analyses indicated that the semidiurnal tide (M2) was predominant; however, relatively large nonlinear tidal currents (M4 and M6) were also found. Moreover, the spatial mean amplitudes of M2, M4, and M6 were 0.35 (excluding the tidal flat), 0.09, and 0.04 m/s, respectively. Dynamic analyses showed that continuity and advection terms were the main contributors to M4 in the bay mouth, whereas M4 in the tidal flats was generated by continuity and friction terms. Furthermore, bottom friction was the primary contributor to M6. In addition, residual currents with multi-vortex structures appeared near the bay mouth, the maximum speed reached 0.60 m/s, and advection, continuity, and bottom friction contributed more to the generation of residual current eddies. Horizontal pressure gradient of residual elevation and advection of tidal and residual currents were the dominant factors maintaining the residual current near the bay mouth. The generation mechanisms of M4 and M6 were first discussed based on the assimilation of the current field data in JZB. © 2021. American Geophysical Union. All Rights Reserved. |
