Nitrospina-like Bacteria Are Dominant Potential Mercury Methylators in Both the Oyashio and Kuroshio Regions of the Western North Pacific [PDF]
Highly neurotoxic methylmercury (MeHg) accumulates in marine organisms, thereby negatively affecting human and environmental health. Recent studies have revealed that oceanic prokaryotes harboring the hgcAB gene pair are involved in Hg methylation ...

Seasonal cycles of surface layer salinity in the Pacific Ocean [PDF]
The seasonal variability of surface layer salinity (SLS) is examined in the Pacific Ocean between 40° S and 60° N using a variety of data sources. Significant seasonal cycles were found in 5 regions: 1) The western North Pacific, 2) The northeastern ...

Covariability of western tropical Pacific-North Pacific atmospheric circulation during summer [PDF]
AbstractNorth Pacific subtropical high (NPSH) is permanent high-pressure system over the Northern Pacific Ocean and it extends to the western North Pacific during the boreal summer (June-July-August), which is so called the western North Pacific subtropical high (WNPSH).

Trends in western North Pacific tropical cyclone intensity [PDF]
Using the tropical cyclone best track data from the U.S. Department of Defense's Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC), Webster et al. [2005] found that between the two consecutive 15‐year periods of 1975–1989 and 1990‐2004, the percentage of typhoons in the western North Pacific meeting the definition of categories 4 and 5 on the Saffir‐Simpson ...
