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.

Modulation of internal solitary waves by the Kuroshio in the northern South China Sea
Internal solitary waves (ISWs) in the South China Sea (SCS) are considerably modulated by the background currents. In this study, a three-dimensional high-resolution non-hydrostatic model is configured to investigate how the Kuroshio influences the ...

An assessment of the surface turbulent heat fluxes from the NCEP reanalysis over western boundary currents [PDF]
With the completion of the NCEP-NCAR and ECMWF reanalyses there are now global representations of air-sea surface heat fluxes with sufficient spatial and temporal resolution to be useful in characterizing the air-sea interaction associated with ...

Origins of the midlatitude Pacific decadal variability [PDF]
Analysis of multiple climate simulations shows much of the midlatitude Pacific decadal variability to be composed of two simultaneously occurring elements: One is a stochastically driven, passive ocean response to the atmosphere while the other is ...

Why is Trichodesmium abundant in the Kuroshio? [PDF]
The genus Trichodesmium is recognized as an abundant and major diazotroph in the Kuroshio, but the reason for this remains unclear. The present study investigated the abundance of Trichodesmium spp. and nitrogen fixation together with concentrations of

Elevated Nutrient Supply Caused by the Approaching Kuroshio to the Southern Coast of Japan
Although the Kuroshio Current has been well-known for being nutrient poor in its upper layers, it sustains a great biodiversity within its region, including the Kuroshio Extension.
