Nitrospina-like Bacteria Are Dominant Potential Mercury Methylators in Both the Oyashio and Kuroshio Regions of the Western North Pacific [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2021 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 ...

Narrowing region for tropical convections in the western North Pacific. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2023 AbstractConsidering that the subtropical highs and tropical convections are observed as negative and positive vorticities respectively, the large-scale features of the atmospheric environment can be effectively represented using streamfunctions as defined by the Laplacian.

A possible linkage of the western North Pacific summer monsoon with the North Pacific Gyre Oscillation [PDF]
Atmospheric Science Letters, 2016 AbstractThis study examines possible links between the western North Pacific summer monsoon (WNPSM) and the North Pacific Gyre Oscillation (NPGO). Our research findings are summarized as follows: (1) In addition to the Central Pacific El Niño, the WNPSM also exerts significant modulation on the NPGO.

Nutrient regulation of biological nitrogen fixation across the tropical western North Pacific. [PDF]
Sci Adv, 2022 Nitrogen fixation is critical for the biological productivity of the ocean, but clear mechanistic controls on this process remain elusive. Here, we investigate the abundance, activity, and drivers of nitrogen-fixing diazotrophs across the tropical ...

Tsunami hazard analysis for Chinese coast from potential earthquakes in the western North Pacific
Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2020 China is a Pacific coastal country, adjacent to the Circum-Pacific seismic belt. The tsunami from the western North Pacific is very dangerous to China because of the short distance.

Poleward migration of western North Pacific tropical cyclones related to changes in cyclone seasonality. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2021 The average location of observed western North Pacific (WNP) tropical cyclones (TCs) has shifted north over the last several decades, but the cause remains not fully understood.
