Abstract

Abstract

Based on monthly data of the second version of Hamburg Ocean Atmosphere Parameters and Fluxes from Satellite data (HOAPS) from 1988 to 2002, the temporal and spatial variability of potential heat, sensible heat and sea surface temperature (SST) of South China Sea (SCS) has been analyzed by the EOF (Empirical Orthogonal Function) method.The results show:in summer, the potential heat in northern SCS is larger than the southern SCS, and the sensible heat in middle SCS is smaller than the other regimes.The ocean almost transport the potential heat and sensible heat into the atmosphere while the atmosphere transport the sensible heat to the ocean sometimes; In winter, both the potential and sensible heat is high in the northern SCS.There exists a high potential and sensible heat core in northeastern SCS which is mainly caused by the wind field; The SST has a half annual variability because there is a cold water in summer, and the SST lags behind the potential heat by about one month in winter; Except the summer and the winter mode, the transition mode from winter to summer is also significant; Compare the HOAPS data to the National Center of Environment Prediction (NCEP) Data, the temporal and spatial variability of potential heat, sensible heat and sea surface temperature bear much resemblance, and HOAPS data can describe higher resolution spatial characters of these air sea flux than NCEP data.
