Abstract:An ocean acoustic tomography (OAT) experiment conducted in the northern South China Sea in 2021 measured a month-long record of acoustic travel times along paths of over one hundred kilometers in range. A mesoscale eddy passed through the experimental region during the deployment of four acoustic moorings, providing unique OAT data for examining the deep temperature change in the eddy and for comparison with the Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) data. The existence of the eddy is first confirmed by the mer… Show more
