This book was released on 1968 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of the United States effort in the UNESCO-sponsored Cooperative Study of the Kuroshio and Adjacent Regions (CSK), the Marine Environment Division, Ocean Sciences Department, collected data on temperature structure in the Kuroshio Current. In addition, the relative current at four levels and to a depth of 240 meters is superimposed on the isotherm sections. The purpose of this cruise was to collect nearly continuous temperature-structure data in and adjacent to the Kuroshio Current. It was hoped that the data could be employed in estimating the size of the larger, turbulent eddies in the Kuroshio and would aid in understanding the mixing processes taking place. (Author).
Download or read book Kuroshio Current written by Takeyoshi Nagai and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-06-05 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An interdisciplinary study of the Kuroshio nutrient stream The surface water of the Kuroshio, a western boundary current in the North Pacific Ocean, is nutrient-depleted and has relatively low primary productivity, yet abundant fish populations are supported in the region. This is called the “Kuroshio Paradox”. Kuroshio Current: Physical, Biogeochemical and Ecosystem Dynamics presents research from a multidisciplinary team that conducted observational and modeling studies to investigate this contradiction. This timely and important contribution to the ocean sciences literature provides a comprehensive analysis of the Kuroshio. Volume highlights include: New insights into the role of the Kuroshio as a nutrient stream The first interdisciplinary examination of the Kuroshio Paradox Reflections on the influence of the Kuroshio on Japanese culture Research results on both the lower and higher trophic levels in the Kuroshio ecosystem Comparisons of nutrient dynamics in the Kuroshio and Gulf Stream Predictions of ecosystem responses to future climate variability

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The California Front, the boundary region between the Eastern North Pacific Central Water and the Transition Water, is approximately 170 mi wide, and is centered approximately 530 mi off the California Coast. (This region contains large anomalies in water structure that influence sound transmission.) The location of the maximum horizontal change in water properties was established from serial oceanographic stations, and the detail of thermal and current structures was obtained with a towed thermistor chain and attached current meters. The boundary is characterized by stronger than normal horizontal temperature (and salinity) gradients; large vertical changes in isotherm depths; temperature inversions; a large surface temperature gradient; and a thermocline separation. Temperature inversions produce sound channels above the level of increased temperature. Measured current shear shows relative current in the upper layers to be in a southerly direction on the eastern side of the boundary and in a westerly direction on the western side; however, current shear inside the boundary regions was in diverse directions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Individual, seasonal, 300-m temperature maps were constructed over the Kuroshio Current System from 130 E to 170 W, for a four-year period from summer 1976 through spring 1980, by using TRANSPAC XBT data and JODC temperature/depth data. Quasi-stationary meanders in the Kuroshio Current System occurred at 137 E (i.e., Kuroshio Meander), at 144 E and 150 E (i.e., lee-wave meanders), and near 160 E (i.e., meander over the Shatsky Rise). A composite of the paths of the Kuroshio (i.e., the 12 C isotherm) from the individual seasonal maps, and the total variance map, finds nodes (i.e., minima) and anti-nodes (i.e., maxima) of variability to have existed along the mean Kuroshio path. The anti-nodes coincided with the location of the quasi-stationary meanders, the nodes in between. Zonal propagation of temperature anomalies accounted for 20-30% of the total interannual variance. These temperature anomalies propagated eastward at .5 -1.5 cm/sec in the region 140-155 E, and westward at -1 to -2 cm/sec in the region 155 E-175 W. In the latter part of the four-year period (1979-80), the Kuroshio Meander became weak and the Kuroshio Extension was displaced southward, from 36-37 N during the first two years to 34 N during the latter two years. Associated with these large-scale changes, the quasi-stationary meander pattern in the Kuroshio Extension became unstable, associated with increased eddy activity and ring production. In fact, ring production doubled (i.e., from five to ten rings per year) from that of the previous three years.
