Abstract: ummer hydrographic data from 1971 to 2000 demonstrate the presence of bottom cold water (BCW) and a bottom thermal front around the BCW in a semienclosed sea in the Seto Inland Sea of Japan. The horizontal gradient of water ...

Abstract: his study shows that mesoscale eddies can alter the Taiwan Strait Current. The 20-yr data-assimilated Japan Coastal Ocean Predictability Experiment 2 (JCOPE2) reanalysis data are analyzed, and the results are confirmed ...

Abstract: A high-resolution ocean general circulation model is developed to simulate connections between the Kuroshio path variations and mesoscale eddy activities as realistically as possible. The climatological mean of the modeled ...

Abstract: A 1/18° nested ocean model is used to determine locations, volume transports, and temporal variations of Kuroshio onshore fluxes across the shelf break of the East China Sea (ECS). The Kuroshio onshore flux shows strong ...

Abstract: nshore and offshore currents and the associated volume transport across three isobaths (50, 100, and 200 m) over the continental shelf of the East China Sea were examined using daily reanalysis data in 1993?2012. After ...

Abstract: A triply nested ocean general circulation model was used to examine how the model horizontal resolution influences the Kuroshio in the East China Sea (ECS) and the sea level variability. As the model resolution increases ...
