Hadal zones of the Northwest Pacific Ocean [PDF]
Abstract Understanding the extent of the hadal ecosystem (habitats exceeding 6000 m water depth) is convoluted due to the complexity of seafloor geomorphology that accounts for 45% of the total ocean depth range. Furthermore, at such great depths, features such as fracture zones and basins, although numerous, are less prominent and therefore have ...

Many pathogens can cause cancer, but cancer itself does not normally act as an infectious agent. However, transmissible cancers have been found in a few cases in nature: in Tasmanian devils, dogs, and several bivalve species. The transmissible cancers in

Gravimetric geoid in the Northwest Pacific Ocean [PDF]
A total of 3708 1 x 1 deg free-air gravity anomaly averages have been used to construct a new 1 x 1 deg gravimetric geoid of the Northwest Pacific Ocean. The 1 x 1 deg averages are based on a compilation of 147,000 surface ship and pendulum gravity measurements.

Pulses of enhanced North Pacific Intermediate Water ventilation from the Okhotsk Sea and Bering Sea during the last deglaciation [PDF]
Under modern conditions only North Pacific Intermediate Water is formed in the northwest Pacific Ocean. This situation might have changed in the past.

Decreasing trend of tropical cyclone-induced ocean warming in recent decades
Tropical cyclones (TCs) can influence climate by pumping heat into the ocean, yet little is known about how the TC-induced ocean heat uptake (OHU) has changed in recent decades. Based on ocean reanalysis, we calculated OHU and found a significant decline

Impact of Typhoon on Evaporation Duct in the Northwest Pacific Ocean [PDF]
Evaporation duct is a layer above the ocean surface due to the inherent humidity inversion at the air-sea boundary layer. The formation of the duct depends on meteorological factors near the ocean surface and is affected by weather process above the ocean.

Trophic structure of micronekton in the Northwest Pacific Ocean
IntroductionStable isotope analysis has been widely used in the study of the trophic structure of marine micronekton in recent years.MethodsIn this study, the carbon and nitrogen stable isotope values of fish, cephalopod, shrimp and zooplankton species were measured from samples collected in the Northwest Pacific Ocean in March and September 2019 to ...

Distribution of hydrogen peroxide in the northwest Pacific Ocean [PDF]
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a reactive oxygen intermediate involved in the cycling of metals and dissolved organic matter. Because little is known of its distribution in the North Pacific Ocean, we determined H2O2 in surface waters continuously and obtained vertical profiles at nine stations during a cruise from Japan to Hawaii.
