The Sea of Japan

2013
The Dokdo/Takeshima dispute has remained a major irritant in Japan-Korea relations, preventing a deepening of diplomatic ties. Nationalism and the quest for natural resources have, in the context of the Dokdo/ Takeshima issue, been locked in a complex relationship.

Tritium in the Japan Sea and the renewal time of the Japan Sea deep water

Marine Chemistry, 1991
Watanabe, Y.W., Watanabe, S. and Tsunogai, S., 1991. Tritium in the Japan Sea and the renewal time of the Japan Sea deep water. Mar. Chem., 34: 97-108. In 1987 in the Japan Sea, the mean concentration of tritium below 200 m depth was !.2 T.U. (Tritium Unit= 10 ~8 times of the molar fraction of tritium in ordinary hydrogen (T/H X 10 iS) ), which was one

The tectonics of the Japan Sea

Marine Geology, 1979
Abstract The geological data on regions surrounding the deep-sea basins of the Japan Sea suggest that geosynclinal systems were emplaced as ensimatic geosynclines in Early Paleozoic and Precambrian times. Thus, the general crustal structure of this region has been developing from this time as a result of the irreversible geosynclinal processess of ...

Phosphorites of the Sea of Japan

Oceanology, 2012
The lithology and geochemistry of the Miocene concretional phosphorites recovered from four submarine rises in the Sea of Japan (the North and South Yamato, the East Korean, and the Krishtofovich) were examined by means of analytical electron microscopy and ICP-MS chemical and microchemical elemental analysis.

Alkenone production in the East Sea/Japan Sea

Continental Shelf Research, 2014
Abstract To test the applicability of alkenones as a proxy for past sea surface temperature (SST) in the East Sea (Japan Sea), this study investigated the season and depth of alkenone production in the area. Surface and subsurface seawater samples were collected from the East Sea during cruises carried out by the National Fisheries Research and ...

Variability of Sea Surface Circulation in the Japan Sea

Journal of Oceanography, 2001
Composite sea surface dynamic heights (CSSDH) are calculated from both sea surface dynamic heights that are derived from altimetric data of ERS-2 and mean sea surface that is calculated by a numerical model. The CSSDH are consistent with sea surface temperature obtained by satellite and observed water temperature.

Variability modes of sea level in the Sea of Japan

Oceanology, 2013
Variability of sea level in the Sea of Japan is studied using multivariate analysis of weekly altimetry fields spanning from October 1992 through October 2009. Interacting (non-orthogonal) modes of variability are revealed on seasonal time scale, representing synchronous oscillations in the entire Sea and meridional sea level gradient, respectively ...

Sea-ice production in the northern Japan Sea

Deep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers, 2017
Abstract Sinking of the dense water plays a significant role in the global climate system by driving thermohaline (overturning) circulation and biogeochemical cycles. Deep water convection occurs also in the Japan Sea, and the convection has been considered to be mainly caused by intense cooling of the sea surface.

The Air-Sea Exchange of CO2 in the East Sea (Japan Sea)

Journal of Oceanography, 1999
During CREAMS expeditions, fCO2 for surface waters was measured continuously along the cruise tracks. The fCO2 in surface waters in summer varied in the range 320–440 µatm, showing moderate supersaturation with respect to atmospheric CO2. In winter, however, fCO2 showed under-saturation of CO2 in most of the area, while varying in a much wider range ...
