Description
Summary:<!--!introduction!--> Field observations of coastal regions are important for studying physical and biological features. Observations of high-resolution coastal phenomena were obtained by using a tow-yo instrument and a turbulence profifiler at Daya Bay in the South China Sea in October 2015. Details of coastal phenomena, including warm water from a nuclear plant discharge, as well as an upwelling, and front, were obtained. The upwelling, with a width of 2 km, resulted in saltier and more turbid water near the bottom, with low chlorophyll-a and dissolved oxygen contents being transported upward to the surface layer and changing the local water environment. The front, with the lateral salinity variations as large as 0.7 psu across 1 km, was active at the water intersection of the South China Sea and Daya Bay. Such events commonly form during weak stratifification periods in autumn. Continuous measurements from VMP-250 profifiler over circa 22 h revealed active fronts and an averaged dissipation rate of ... : The 28th IUGG General Assembly (IUGG2023) (Berlin 2023) ...
