Seasonal and interannual variabilities of mean velocity of Kuroshio based on satellite data
Water Science and Engineering, 2012 Combining sea level anomalies with the mean dynamic topography derived from the geoid of the EGM08 global gravity field model and the CLS01 mean sea surface height, this study examined the characteristics of global geostrophic surface currents and the ...

Ecology and Evolution, 2021 There are alternative methods for estimation of phytoplankton primary production (PP) that are fundamentally different in the calculation approach. The process‐oriented PP model is a mechanistic, empirically derived method based on the photosynthesis ...

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page i-xiv., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

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

The Lagrangian description of aperiodic flows: a case study of the Kuroshio Current [PDF]
, 2012 This article reviews several recently developed Lagrangian tools and shows how their combined use succeeds in obtaining a detailed description of purely advective transport events in general aperiodic flows.

The nascent Kuroshio of Lamon Bay [PDF]
Journal 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

Paleohydrography of the Kuroshio-Kuroshio Extension based on fossil diatoms
JAMSTEC 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 ...
