Jiaozhou Bay

The animation display the change in the M2 tidal current over tidal cycles. Color image:  the surface elevation. Vectors: the near-surface tidal currents (Chen et al.. 1997).
The animation displays the NPZ model-predicted near-surface water temperature, salinity, phytoplankton biomass (Chl-a concentration), and phosphate concentration (Chen et al., 1997).
The animation displays the model-predicted near-surface water temperature, salinity, phytoplankton biomass (Chl-a concentration), and phosphate concentration on a transect cut from the Yellow Sea (deeper part-right) to the northern end of Jiaozhou Bay (shallow part-left) (Chen et al., 1997).

The animation displays the movement of particles released near the surface (red balls) and bottom (blue balls) in a region close to the narrow strait of Jiaozhou Bay for the case with the only tidal forcing.
The animation displays the movement of particles released near the surface (red balls) and bottom (blue balls) in a region close to the narrow strait of Jiaozhou Bay for the case with the tidal and wind forcings.
The animation displays the movement of particles released near the surface (red balls) and bottom (blue balls) near the northeastern coast of Jiaozhou Bay for the case with the only tidal forcing.

The animation displays the movement of particles released near the surface (red balls) and bottom (blue balls) near the northeastern coast of Jiaozhou Bay for the case with the tidal and wind forcings.
The animation displays the movement of particles released near the surface (red balls) and bottom (blue balls) near the northwestern coast of Jiaozhou Bay for the case with the only tidal forcing.
