利用最近收集的海流和水文数据，我们提供了一幅高分辨率的亚惯性流图像，并估计了通过吕宋海峡的流量。次惯性流的分布在吕宋海峡北部100m附近有较强的西向流动，而向东的流动主要集中在较深的海层，大部分在1000m左右，估计2005年10月4日至16日观测期间的总体积输送为6+/-3Sv。观测还证实，吕宋海峡运输船具有夹层垂直结构。吕宋海峡深层(>；1500m)的净西向流量输送达到2Sv。
Using recently collected current and hydrographic data, we provide a high resolution picture of the subinertial flow and estimate the volume transport through the Luzon Strait. The distribution of the subinertial flow shows a strong westward flow around 100 m in the northern part of the Luzon Strait, while the eastward flow is confined to the deeper layers, mostly at depths around 1000 m. The total volume transport is estimated to be 6 +/- 3 Sv during the period of observations from October 4 to 16, 2005. The observations also confirm that the Luzon Strait transport has a sandwiched vertical structure. The net westward volume transport in the deep (> 1500 m) layer of the Luzon Strait reaches 2 Sv.
