Ocean Meanders Modulate Extratropical Cyclone Energetics

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Extratropical cyclones primarily develop over the western parts of ocean basins, where strong sea surface temperature (SST) contrasts form along western boundary currents. While previous studies have highlighted the influence of the mean SST and SST gradient on cyclones developing over these currents, they have generally disregarded their ...

Intrinsic low-frequency variability and predictability of the Kuroshio Current and of its extension

open access: yesAdvances in Oceanography and Limnology, 2014
Investigations of the intrinsic low-frequency variability and predictability of the Kuroshio Current and of its extension jet (the Kuroshio Extension, KE) are reviewed. The Kuroshio and KE in the North Pacific constitute a western boundary current system

Investigation of North Pacific sea ice anomalies in the context of atmospheric and oceanic variability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Thesis (M.S.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2001This study investigates the main mode of variability in North Pacific sea ice and examines the relationship between sea ice concentration and northern hemispheric climate variability for the period 1968 ...

Reduction of Rainfall During Tropical Cyclone Passage by Kuroshio Large Meander: A Case Study of Tropical Cyclone Talas (2011)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Tropical cyclone (TC) intensity and associated rainfall depend on sea surface temperature (SST). SSTs in southern Japan, which are often hit by TCs, are likely influenced by the path of the Kuroshio. During the Kuroshio large meander (KLM), Kuroshio creates a coexistence of local warm and cold SST anomalies near the Japanese coast.

Paleohydrography of the Kuroshio-Kuroshio Extension off Sanriku Coast based on fossil diatoms

open access: yesJAMSTEC Report of Research and Development, 2007
The high-resolution analyses of fossil diatom assemblages in four cores recovered from the area off Sanriku Coast revealed the most complicated hydrographic history in this area. The fossil diatom assemblages changed in responding to the expansion of the warm-water eddies detached from the Kuroshio Extension and of the southward Oyashio Intrusion ...

Impact of the AMOC Weakening on Upper Troposphere/Lower Stratosphere Warming Over the Extratropical North Pacific

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is a key regulator of the Earth's climate. Here using water hosing experiments with a coupled climate model, we show that a weakened AMOC leads to a significant boreal winter upper troposphere/lower stratosphere (UTLS) warming over the extratropical North Pacific (ENP).

Linkage Between Late‐Summer Heat Waves Over Northeastern Siberia and Subsequent SST Cooling in the Western North Pacific

open access: yesAtmospheric Science Letters, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Anomalous high pressure over northeastern Siberia in August, concurrent with frequent heat waves, is typically followed by colder autumn sea surface temperatures in the western North Pacific. The ocean cooling is modulated by a low‐pressure system over the western North Pacific, which reduces insolation through increased cloud cover and enhances ...

Short-term fluctuations south of Japan and their relationship with the Kuroshio path: 8- to 36-day fluctuations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
To detect short-term fluctuations south of Japan, we applied wavelet analysis to ocean-reanalysis data of the Japan Coastal Ocean Predictability Experiment 2 (JCOPE2) with a horizontal resolution of 1/36°.
