This paper provides a concise review of the remote sensing of ocean fronts in marine
ecology and fisheries, with a particular focus on the most popular front detection algorithms …

A new data set of seasonal stable water isotopes (δD and δ18O) and temperature‐salinity
profiles was applied to improve our understanding of water mass distributions and their …

Since offshore waters are less affected by human activities and nutrient‐rich water masses,
existing theories on periodic offshore blooms (POB) consider that the POB is proportional to …

Satellite observations from 2002 to 2017 were used to investigate the spatial distribution and
temporal variability of chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) in the South China Sea (SCS). High levels of Chl …

Abstract The South China Sea (SCS) is abundant with complex multiscale dynamic
processes but their spatiotemporal variations, generation and evolution mechanisms, and …

High-resolution satellite observations of sea surface temperature (SST) were used to derive
the daily SST fronts and monthly frontal probability (FP) in the South China Sea (SCS). A …

Abstract The Luzon Strait is a channel where warmer Kuroshio water from the Pacific Ocean
intrudes into the South China Sea (SCS). Under climate change impact, the temperature in …

Ocean fronts affect phytoplankton and higher trophic levels, including commercially
important fisheries. As the oceans warm, uncertainty remains around the trends in fronts …

Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are period of extreme ocean temperatures that can last from a
few days to several years. The increasing frequency and intensity of MHWs have …

In the northern South China Sea of western Pacific Ocean during winter, clouds, sun glint,
and other factors block optic sensors, leading to a high missing rate and hence a major …
