“…In this study, we only focus on climatological features and long‐term projected changes. However, we recognize that the SCS and MC are also modulated by tropical climate variabilities in different timescales, such as ENSO (Gordon et al., 2012; Jiang et al., 2019; Qu et al., 2004; Ramos et al., 2019), IOD (e.g., Li, Gordon et al., 2020), Pacific Decadal Oscillation (Wu, 2013), Interdecadal Pacific Oscillation (e.g., Li, Gordon et al., 2020), and Philippines‐Taiwan oscillation (Chang & Oey, 2012). Furthermore, due to the potential role of oceanic mesoscale eddies (Zhang et al., 2016), SCS transport may also change in the future.…”
