Kuroshio Current
Author: Takeyoshi Nagai
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119428386
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 326
Book Description
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

Thermal Structure Through the California Front
Author: Eugene Cecil LaFond
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Ocean currents
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
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. (Author).
