Kuroshio Meanders in the East China Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An array of seven inverted echo sounders was moored along and across the Kuroshio in the East China Sea for more than one year. The data from this array show evidence of energetic meanders with periods of 7, 11, and 16 ...
Surface Heat Flux Variations across the Kuroshio Extension as Observed by Surface Flux Buoys
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Wintertime sea surface heat flux variability across the Kuroshio Extension (KE) front is analyzed using data from the Kuroshio Extension Observatory (KEO) buoy in the Kuroshio recirculation gyre south of the KE front and ...
Ocean Frontal Effects on the Vertical Development of Clouds over the Western North Pacific: In Situ and Satellite Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A suite of shipboard and satellite observations are analyzed and synthesized to investigate the three-dimensional structure of clouds and influences from sea surface temperature fronts over the western North Pacific. Sharp ...
Propagation of Kuroshio Extension Meanders between 143° and 149°E
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: two-dimensional array of current- and pressure-recording inverted echo sounders provided synoptic measurements of the upper and deep fluctuations in the Kuroshio Extension between 143° and 149°E with mesoscale resolution. ...
