Abstract | Breaking internal tides and induced mixing are critical to shelf dynamics, including heat and mass exchanges. Spatiotemporal variability of internal tides and modulation factors for the southern East China Sea shelf were examined based on a combination of a three-month mooring velocity and satellite altimeter data. Semidiurnal and diurnal internal tides exhibited distinct temporal trends, with the semidiurnal internal tides enhanced by an order of magnitude during the latter half of the record, while the diurnal internal tides followed quasi spring-neap cycles with a generally stable intensity except for two specific periods of strengthening. These internal tides probably originated remotely over the shelf-slope area northeast of Taiwan. Time-varying stratification was the most important factor for the internal tidal magnitude. In addition, varying background currents influenced the diurnal critical latitude band, which explains the slightly enhanced diurnal internal tides during the two periods. Although both semidiurnal and diurnal internal tides were mode-1 dominated, the semidiurnal internal tides were surface intensified while the diurnal tides were bottom intensified. The proportion of higher mode internal tides increased during robust eddy activities. Stronger background vertical shear corresponded to high-frequency events and energy transfers from tidal frequencies to high frequencies associated with turbulent mixing. |
