Model produced sea level and velocity variations from day 150 to 360. (a) Time versus longitude of sea level at 10.5° N and wind stress near the coast of Palawan at (118° E, 10.5° N). The 9-day low-pass-filtered 25 m depth zonal velocity (black curve) and upper 120 m depth-averaged zonal velocity (red curve) at (115° E, 10.5° N) are overlaid on the SLA plot. Blue dashed lines in (a) are determined by the same criterion as the yellow dashed lines in Fig. 3a, which indicate the slope of the high sea level signals. The sea level (colored) and 25 m depth velocity (arrows) at model day (b) 180, (c) 200, (d) 250, and (e) 300. The sea level contour interval is 0.02 m.
