Vertical displacement loading tides and self-attraction and loading tides in the Bohai, Yellow, and East China Seas

The loading tides are calculated by means of the Green’s function method based on a high-resolution regional ocean tide model, the TOPO7.0 global ocean tide model, and the Gutenberg-Bullen A Earth model. The results show that the maximal amplitude of M2 vertical displacement loading (VDL) tide in the Bohai, Yellow, and East China Seas exceeding 28 mm appears 150 km off the Zhejiang coast; the second maximum exceeding 20 mm appears in Inchon Bay; and the third maximum exceeding 14 mm is located in the northeast of the North Yellow Sea. The maximal amplitudes of S2 VDL tide at the above three locations exceed 10, 8, and 4 mm, respectively. The maximal amplitudes of the K1 and O1 VDL tides, exceeding 13 and 10 mm respectively, appear near the central and north Ryukyu Islands; the amplitudes tend to decease toward the inward areas. The phases of semidiurnal VDL tides are basically opposite to those of corresponding ocean tides. The phases of diurnal VDL tides are basically opposite to those of corresponding ocean tides in the most part of the East China Sea and the eastern part of the South Yellow Sea. This anti-phase relationship generally does not hold in the rest parts of the Bohai and Yellow Seas. The distribution patterns of self-attraction and loading (SAL) tides are very similar to those of VDL tides. The SAL tides have amplitudes about 1.2–1.7 times of the corresponding VDL tides and their phases are basically opposite to the corresponding VDL tides. The maximal amplitude of M2 SAL tide also appears off the Zhejiang coast, with a magnitude exceeding 42 mm.

Chezy型和广义Manning型摩擦关系在渤、黄、东海陆架潮汐模拟中的应用

以往对渤、黄、东海潮汐数值模拟中使用的摩擦系数大都采用不随地点变化的常数,即采用Chezy型摩擦。为了改善模拟效果,本文比较了Chezy型和广义Manning型摩擦关系,并选择与实测数据符合最好的参数,即最优参数。结果表明,采用广义Manning型摩擦系数所得结果更好。底摩擦系数在0.0009至0.0014之间,显著低于Proudman（1953）给出的0.0026,也比以往大多数已发表的值小。与原始的Manning公式不同（该公式的幂值为负数）,本研究得到的幂值为正,表明在渤、黄、东海陆架区。总体上,水体越浅摩擦系数越小。本文给出了根据最优Manning型摩擦参数模拟得出的同潮图和能通量分布图,并描述了它们的特征。
