Boundary‐Aware Separation of Vortical and Wavy Motions in the Ocean
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.Abstract With the recent popularity of the tide‐resolving and submesoscale‐admitting numerical simulations, there is an increasing interest in separating vortical and wavy motions in the ocean. The recently‐proposed dynamics‐based decomposition exploits the relative magnitude of the relative vorticity and horizontal divergence in Fourier space and ...

Isopycnal Pathway for Small‐Particle Export in a Decaying Cyclonic Eddy Revealed by a BGC‐Argo Float
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.Abstract Mesoscale eddies influence carbon export through production, subduction, mixing, and particle redistribution. In this study, a BGC‐Argo float observed a deep particle layer in the twilight zone during the decay of a cyclonic eddy in the Northwest Pacific.

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

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.Abstract To explore multidecadal trends of the Vietnamese Southern Coastal Upwelling (SCU), we employed an SCU index (Southern Coastal Upwelling index [SCUI]), defined as the difference between basin‐wide SST (Tref ${T}_{\mathrm{r}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{f}}$) and local minimum SST (Tmin ${T}_{\min }$).

Multiproxy reconstruction for Kuroshio responses to northern hemispheric oceanic climate and the Asian Monsoon since Marine Isotope Stage 5.1 (∼88 ka) [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2014 The Kuroshio, a western boundary current in the northwestern Pacific, plays a key role in regulating ocean and climate in East Asia. The evolution of the Kuroshio and its branches has been the focus of paleoceanographic studies. In this study, we applied

On the Variation of the Kuroshio
Journal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1972 The review on the variation of the Kuroshio extending from several hours to ten years is described here. We have had no clear understandings on the mechanisms of occurrence of large and comparatively stable meander off Kisyu-Ensyu Nada. It is known, at present, that the selected several small meanders in spring off the east coast of Kyusyu progress ...

3D Atmospheric Imprint of Mesoscale Eddies Driven by the Thermal Feedback in the Gulf Stream Region
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.Abstract The 3D imprint of mesoscale ocean eddies on the overlying atmosphere is investigated using coupled ocean‐atmosphere high‐resolution simulation of the Gulf Stream region, distinguishing cyclones and anticyclones. Sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies are predominantly warm for anticyclones and cold for cyclones, driving a Thermal Feedback ...

Spatial variations in the Kuroshio nutrient transport from the East China Sea to south of Japan [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 Based on absolute geostrophic velocity, which was calculated using repeated hydrographic data of 39 cruises from 2000 to 2009 and nitrate concentrations measured in the same areas from 1964 to 2009, we obtained the temporally averaged nitrate flux (the ...

Bimodal Behavior of the Kuroshio and the Gulf Stream [PDF]
Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2001 For a long time, observations have indicated that the Kuroshio in the North Pacific Ocean displays bimodal meandering behavior off the southern coast of Japan. For the Gulf Stream in the North Atlantic Ocean, weakly and strongly deflected paths near the coast of South Carolina have been observed.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.Abstract Based on the ERA5 six‐hourly reanalysis data set and objective identification and tracking methods for extratropical cyclones (ECs), this study identified 423 summer ECs that passed through Northeast China (NEC) during 1979–2023. These ECs were categorized into three distinct types using K‐means clustering based on their genesis locations.
