“…LCSs take the form of material lines, which are smooth and continuous curves of fluid particles advected by the flow, to reflect the fluid‐flow transport (Peacock & Haller, 2013). The LCSs analysis has been applied to many oceanic research areas, including open ocean (Duran et al., 2018; Harrison & Glatzmaier, 2012), continental shelves (Dong et al., 2021; Hu & Zhou, 2019), and coastal and estuarine waters (Ghosh et al., 2018; Ghosh, Suara, Mccue, & Brown, 2021; Giudici et al., 2021; Suara et al., 2020; Wei et al., 2013), which provides a useful tool to investigate the accumulation and transport of material. The LCSs method was also used to study the interactions between physical processes and biogeochemical processes, such as the persistency of debris accumulation in estuaries (Ghosh, Suara, Mccue, Yu, & Brown, 2021), the development and dispersion of algal blooms (Olascoaga et al., 2008; Son et al., 2016), and the track of marine predators (Kai et al., 2009).…”
