Oceanic memory of tropical cyclones moderates the Kuroshio current [PDF]

Nature Communications
Tropical cyclones (TCs) dramatically disturb the upper ocean and leave subsurface temperature anomalies that persist beyond their lifetimes, representing an oceanic “memory” of TC activity.

Cytogenetic markers using single-sequence probes reveal chromosomal locations of tandemly repetitive genes in scleractinian coral Acropora pruinosa

Scientific Reports, 2021
The short and similar sized chromosomes of Acropora pose a challenge for karyotyping. Conventional methods, such as staining of heterochromatic regions, provide unclear banding patterns that hamper identification of such chromosomes.

Effects of the Kuroshio on internal tides in the Luzon Strait: A model study

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Internal tides have a great impact on the meridional overturning circulation and climate variability through contributing to diapycnal mixing. The Luzon Strait (LS) is one of the most important sites of internal tide generation in the global ocean.

Assessing the impact of the Kuroshio Current on vertical cloud structure using CloudSat data [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2018
This study analyzed CloudSat satellite data to determine how the warm ocean Kuroshio Current affects the vertical structure of clouds. Rainfall intensity around the middle troposphere (6 km in height) over the Kuroshio was greater than that over ...

Structure and dynamics of the sudden acceleration of Kuroshio off Cape Shionomisaki [PDF]

, 2013
A sudden acceleration of the Kuroshio jet appears off Cape Shionomisaki in the high-resolution (horizontal resolution of 1/36°) JCOPE 2 ocean reanalysis data. Using this dataset, we investigated the structure of the Kuroshio acceleration. The increase in

Decreasing trend of kuroshio intrusion and its effect on the chlorophyll-a concentration in the Luzon Strait, South China Sea

GIScience & Remote Sensing, 2022
Material exchange between oceans and currents is crucial for biogeochemical processes in marginal seas, such as the Kuroshio intrusion in the Luzon Strait, which contributes to nutrient and phytoplankton growth in the adjacent water.

Three-dimensional structure of mesoscale eddies and their interaction with Kuroshio based on observations from a CPIES array

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Mesoscale eddies are widespread in the oceans; however, tracking and observing them remains a challenge. Additionally, there are few studies of eddy–Kuroshio interactions based on large-scale in situ data.

Gene expression profiles of Japanese precious coral Corallium japonicum during gametogenesis [PDF]

PeerJ
Background Corallium japonicum, a prized resource in Japan, plays a vital role in traditional arts and fishing industries. Because of diminished stock due to overexploitation, ongoing efforts are focused on restoration through transplantation. This study

Internal Tides and Their Intraseasonal Variability on the Continental Slope Northeast of Taiwan Island Derived from Mooring Observations and Satellite Data

Remote Sensing, 2021
In this study, strong internal tides were observed on the continental slope northeast of Taiwan Island. Owing to the lack of long-term observations, these tides’ intraseasonal variability and the impact of the Kuroshio Current remain unclear.

Measuring the impact of observations on the predictability of the Kuroshio Extension in a shallow-water model [PDF]

, 2012
In this paper sequential importance sampling is used to assess the impact of observations on a ensemble prediction for the decadal path transitions of the Kuroshio Extension (KE). This particle filtering approach gives access to the probability density of
