Onshore and offshore seawater exchange off northeast Taiwan driven by the combined effects of Kuroshio intrusion and tidal currents

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Communications
The exchange of materials and energy between boundary currents and the surrounding marginal seas largely influences the environment of those seas. In addition to the reported currents over the continental shelf northeast of Taiwan, a process of onshore ...

Lentipes ptasan, a new species of sicydiine goby (Teleostei: Gobioidei) from the Western Pacific, with a redescription of L. mindanaoensis

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Lentipes ptasan sp. nov. is described based on specimens collected from Taiwan and Mindanao Island. It is a large‐sized Lentipes species distinguished by several male‐specific characteristics, including an upper lip protruding beyond snout obviously, fewer premaxillary tricuspid teeth, two black lines running from the front of the eye through ...

First direct evidence of spawning by Japanese sardine Sardinops melanosticta (Temminck and Schlegel) in the eastern Pacific Ocean

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In 2022 the presence of the Japanese sardine, Sardinops melanosticta (Temminck and Schlegel), was detected in the eastern Pacific Ocean, far outside its known western North Pacific range. The species was collected along with the Pacific sardine, Sardinops sagax (Jenyns), which is native to the eastern Pacific Ocean.

Shear Instability and Turbulent Mixing by Kuroshio Intrusion Into the Changjiang River Plume

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Shear instability is a dominant mechanism for mixing in the stratified oceans and coastal seas. For the first time, we present fine‐scale, direct measurements of shear instabilities in the bottom front generated by the Kuroshio intrusion into the ...

The Kuroshio exchange with the South and East China Seas [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2009
The Kuroshio flows along the edges of the marginal East Asian seas such as the South China Sea (SCS) and East China Sea (ECS). Exchanges of materials and energy between the Kuroshio and the marginal seas partly control the environments of the marginal ...

Sediment transport and depositional hydrodynamics on the eastern Korean continental margin revealed by surface sediment granulometry

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terrigenous sediments are transported from coastal areas and shelves to deeper continental margins by multiple processes. Understanding these processes is critical for evaluating the ecological impacts of fine‐grained sediment deposition and predicting future changes in sediment dispersal under rapid climate change.

Seasonal and Mesoscale Variability of the Kuroshio Near Its Origin [PDF]

open access: yesOceanography, 2011
The Kuroshio is the most important current in the North Pacific. Here, we present historical data and recent observations of the Kuroshio off the coasts of Taiwan and the Philippine Archipelago, with a focus on its origins.

Why Did the 2017 Kuroshio Large Meander Event Become the Longest in the Past 70 Years?

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The Kuroshio south of Japan is known to vacillate between a straight and a large meander (LM) path. Since 1950, eight LM events have been observed with different durations.
