The computed results depict the variations of the fluctuation of the thermocline driven by different kinds of wind fields. The fluctuation of the thermocline in the Bohai Sea varies somewhat with different directions, paths and locations of typhoon (cyclone). Under the effects of strong wind, the thermoclines both sink due to mixing and fluctuate. Furthermore, the fluctuation of the thermocline speeds up mixing. At last, the thermoclines disappear after 12-15 h when the strong wind increases from Force 6 to Force 9.展开更多

Recorded time is 48.96 h. Thickness of the thermocline is about 2 m-4 m. The deviation of temperature recorded at a fixed depth is 10℃-15℃. The vertical displacement of isotherm curves is about 5 m-6 m, which is mainly dominated by the lowest model. The measured spectrums of vertical displacement have obvious spectral packet within the range of 0.05 cpm (20 min) and 0. 143 cpm (7 min) besides the diurnal and semidiurnal tide frequency bands. Spectrum attenuation coefficients are between -1.5 and -1.7. Numerical calculation shows that phase velocity and group velocity of internal waves are equal to 0.329 m/s at lower frequencies. And with the increasing of frequency, the group velocity differs from phase velocity at about 0.03 cpm (33.33 min) and drops more quickly. The measured fluctuation of acoustic amplitude is about 8 dB-10 dB. With the increasing of range, the fluctuation trends to be faster and acoustic signals are declining. Spectrum attenuation coefficients are between -1.45 and -2.0. At last, PE method is used to simulate the acoustic amplitude fluctuation, in which internal waves are the important element.展开更多
