Springer Ocean Circulation and Air-Sea Interaction in South China Sea

This comprehensive reference examines two decades of research on circulation patterns and air-sea interaction dynamics within the South China Sea, providing scholars and researchers with an authoritative overview of the region's complex oceanographic environment. The book progresses systematically from foundational concepts of SCS circulation and air-sea interaction through detailed analysis of upper layer circulation at multiple scales, including large-scale phenomena such as SCS through flow and western boundary currents, before exploring meso- and submeso-scale processes and dilute river plume behaviour. Authored by leading researchers and published by Springer, this volume synthesises current understanding of the South China Sea's dynamic physical systems and documents the development of ocean observation networks that have enabled this expanded knowledge base.
