Book Description
Records from 16 current meters and 23 pressure gauges moored near the sea floor in the Ulleung Basin of the southwestern Japan/East Sea (JES) characterized the deep circulation between June 1999 and July 2001. Mean currents range from 1 to 4 cm/s and deep pressure anomalies range from 3 to 10 mbar, with horizontal correlation scales of about 40km, and with integral time scales that range from about S to 20 days. Focusing here on the 90-day to interannual variability, synoptic maps of the deep currents and dynamic pressure fields determine that the deep circulation in the Ulleung Basin is cyclonic, with additional multiple cyclonic and anticyclonic cells that occur on sub-basin spatial scales. Over the Korea Plateau a northward deep outflow is observed that suggests an anticyclonic circulation pattern to the north. The annual average deep currents are remarkably similar for the 2 years, only slightly weaker in the 2nd year. No seasonal pattern is discernible, except weakly at one or two sites.

Oceanography of the East Sea (Japan Sea)
Author: Kyung-Il Chang
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319227203
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 467
Book Description
This book reviews the research in various fields of oceanography on the responses of the East Japan Sea to climate change. The uniqueness of the East Japan Sea comes from the rapid and amplified response to climate change, which includes long-terms trends of physical and chemical parameters at a rate that almost doubles or even higher the global rate. This book aims to provide in an organized way the results from the previously published knowledge but also to introduce an updated view of the research recently carried out. The book is divided into several parts that comprise the physical, chemical, biological, and geological aspects of the region and fisheries. This book is made for researchers and students working on climate variability as well as for the oceanography community working on world’s marginal seas. The research presented in this work will also benefit to researchers from other fields such as social scientists and environmentalists, and also policy makers.

Changing Asia-Pacific Marginal Seas
Author: Chen-Tung Arthur Chen
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811548862
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
This book discusses temporal changes in six Asia-Pacific marginal seas and two west boundary currents in the Northwest Pacific. Covering time scales varying from years to decades, it provides a comprehensive review of the long-term changes in various physical variables, including sea level, sea surface temperature, water mass index, current and transport, as well as local issues such as sea ice and tidal mixing, and the processes and dynamics that govern them. The book also examines biogeochemical variables, such as nutrients, oxygen, pH, water transparency, ocean acidification, eutrophication and productivity, and explores future trends. Offering a holistic view of the changes that have occurred in the Asia-Pacific marginal seas and those that are likely to occur in the future, this book will appeal to readers from all fields of oceanography.
