Phytoplankton growth and consumption by microzooplankton stimulated by turbulent nitrate flux suggest rapid trophic transfer in the oligotrophic Kuroshio [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2020
The Kuroshio Current has been thought to be biologically unproductive because of its oligotrophic conditions and low plankton standing stocks. Even though vulnerable life stages of major foraging fishes risk being entrapped by frontal eddies and meanders

Characteristics of Mesoscale Eddies in the Vicinity of the Kuroshio: Statistics from Satellite Altimeter Observations and OFES Model Data

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Mesoscale eddies propagate westward in the northwestern Pacific Ocean and interact with the Kuroshio in the vicinity of the western boundary of the ocean.

Data assimilation in the low noise regime with application to the Kuroshio

open access: yes, 2014
On-line data assimilation techniques such as ensemble Kalman filters and particle filters lose accuracy dramatically when presented with an unlikely observation.

Observing mesoscale eddy effects on mode-water subduction and transport in the North Pacific. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
While modelling studies suggest that mesoscale eddies strengthen the subduction of mode waters, this eddy effect has never been observed in the field.

Lagrangian study of surface transport in the Kuroshio Extension area based on simulation of propagation of Fukushima-derived radionuclides

open access: yes, 2013
Lagrangian approach is applied to study near-surface large-scale transport in the Kuroshio Extension area using a simulation with synthetic particles advected by AVISO altimetric velocity field.

The nascent Kuroshio of Lamon Bay [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2014
AbstractA northward flowing current, emanating from the North Equatorial Current (NEC) bifurcation at the Philippine margin, enters Lamon Bay along Luzon's eastern coast. There the NEC tropical water masses merge with subtropical water of the western North Pacific to form the Kuroshio. A northward flowing western boundary current is first observed near

Environmental DNA in the Kuroshio reveals environment-dependent distribution of economically important small pelagic fish

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionSmall pelagic fishes constitute large proportions of fisheries and are important components linking lower and higher trophic levels in marine ecosystems.

Paleohydrography of the Kuroshio-Kuroshio Extension based on fossil diatoms

open access: yesJAMSTEC Report of Research and Development, 2005
The hydrographic history of the Kuroshio-Kuroshio Extension system east off Honshu during 200 thousand years was reconstructed based on high-resolution records of fossil diatoms in three cores recovered from the area beneath the Kuroshio Warm Core. The influences of the terrestrial environments are implicated in the fluctuations in number of diatom ...

A hybrid deep learning model for predicting the Kuroshio path south of Japan

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
At present, many prediction models based on deep learning methods have been widely used in ocean prediction with satisfactory results. However, few deep learning models are used to predict the Kuroshio path south of Japan.
