Three-dimensional dynamic oasis effects of mesoscale fronts in the East China Shelf Sea

Communications Earth & Environment
Mesoscale fronts function as dynamic engines driving marine productivity, yet their cascading impacts—particularly their vertical ecological effects—across ecological and human systems remain poorly quantified.

Deep boundary current disintegration in Drake Passage [PDF]

, 2013
The fate of a deep boundary current that originates in the Southeast Pacific and flows southward along the continental slope of South America is elucidated. The current transports poorly ventilated water of low salinity (a type of Pacific Deep Water; PDW)

Westerly winds prompted an anomalous southward migration of Pacific saury (Cololabis saira)

Limnology and Oceanography Letters
The Pacific saury (Cololabis saira), a key pelagic fish in the Northwest Pacific, exhibits autumn migration modulated by Kuroshio–Oyashio Extension mesoscale features, yet daily fishing ground variability remains unexplained.

Horizontal Stratification during Deep Convection in the Labrador Sea [PDF]

, 2014
Deep convection—the process by which surface waters are mixed down to 1000 m or deeper—forms the primary downwelling of the meridional overturning circulation in the Northern Hemisphere.

Abundance of small individuals influences the effectiveness of processing techniques for deep-sea nematodes [PDF]

, 2010
Nematodes are the most abundant metazoans of deep-sea benthic communities, but knowledge of their distribution is limited relative to larger organisms.

Atlantic multidecadal variability amplifies decadal variability in the Kuroshio–Oyashio Extension region under global warming

Communications Earth & Environment
The Kuroshio–Oyashio Extension is a major component of the Pacific western boundary current system, exerting strong influences on air–sea heat exchange, midlatitude climate variability, and marine ecosystem.

On the Vertical Structure of Mesoscale Eddies in the Kuroshio‐Oyashio Extension

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Vertical structure of mesoscale eddies is key to the eddy‐induced heat/material transport that further affects the climate and marine ecosystem. This study explores the vertical structure of mesoscale eddies in the Kuroshio‐Oyashio Extension region (KOE)

The Process‐Oriented Understanding on the Reduced Double‐ITCZ Bias in the High‐Resolution CESM1

Geophysical Research Letters
The double‐Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) bias is a common model bias, which has puzzled the climate model community for several decades. Here, by comparing a high‐ and low‐resolution state‐of‐the‐art model CESM1, it is found that the double‐ITCZ ...
