TL;DR: Guo et al. as mentioned in this paper have shown that the seas are among the busiest waterways in the world because of the size and the high growth rates of theregion in world economy and trade.

TL;DR: An analytical model based on radar backscatter theory was utilized to retrieve sea surface wind speeds from C-band satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data at either vertical (VV) or horizontal (HH) polarization in transmission and reception as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, the satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images display wave-like patterns of the ocean bottom topographic features at the south outlet of Taiwan Strait (TS), and to determine the quantitative relations between the SAR imagery and the bottom features, a two-dimensional, three-layer ocean model with sinusoidal bottom topographical features is developed.

TL;DR: In this article, the variability of sea surface temperature in the region of the Kuroshio intrusion into the South China Sea (SCS) through the Luzon Strait was studied using AVHRR from 1985 to 2002.

TL;DR: In this paper, Tappert et al. analyzed the evolution of ocean internal solitary waves passing over a seamount in the Gulf of Aden and found that a surprisingly sharp recess of an internal solitary wave packet, imaged by the space shuttle Discovery, is a signature of spatial phase delay caused by thermocline shoaling over the seamount.
