title: Thermal Structure of Water Exchange at the Entrance of a Tide-Dominated Strait
abstract: In summer, westward residual flow in the Qiongzhou Strait (QS) drives a water transport through the strait into the Beibu Gulf, playing a vital role in modifying the gulf-scale circulation. By utilizing multi-source observations, realistic simulations, as well as idealized modeling, the water exchange process at the western entrance of the QS was explored from the perspective of thermal structure. High-resolution satellite sea-surface temperature images captured an interesting thermal phenomenon
