During autumn 1968 an oceanographic investigation was conducted in the region of the Subarctic boundary between 155掳E and 180掳. The geostrophic flow of the upper 500 m was remarkably similar in direction; hence the salinity-minimum, Intermediate water must have the same path of flow as water ...

Schematic of the emphasized features in the subpolar Atlantic, with the climatological average upper ocean (0–200 m) silicate concentrations during April obtained from the World Ocean Atlas20contoured with colors. Oceanographic abbreviations: Subpolar gyre (SPG), SubArctic Water (SAW), SubTropical ...
The subarctic front is the northern boundary of the subtropical gyre. It is associated with the annual and AprilSeptember mean zero wind stress curl lines (which are similar), while the Kuroshio Extension is associated with wintertime zero wind stress curl. This means that part of the flow ...
New carbonate chemistry data obtained during a 1982 cruise have been combined with earlier GE-OSECS and INDOPAC data to determine the degree of aragonite saturation of surface and intermediate waters of the North Pacific. Large gradients in saturation state occur in the region of the Subarctic Fro...
Bathymetric influences of the Emperor Seamounts upon the subarctic gyre of the North Pacific: Examining boundary current dynamics along the eastern side of... The possible influences of the Emperor Seamounts (ESs) upon the subarctic gyre of the North Pacific (NPSAG) were investigated by a series...
However, the role of moisture supply in the initiation of large Northern Hemisphere ice sheets has remained unclear. The subarctic Pacific Ocean represents a significant source of water vapour to boreal North America, but it has been largely overlooked in efforts to explain Northern Hemisphere ...
[1] Influence of decadal climate changes upon the North Pacific subarctic and subtropical oceanic frontal zones (NP-SAFZ and NP-STFZ, respectively) is docu... Nakamura,Hisashi - 《Journal of Geophysical Research》 被引量: 133发表: 2003年 Decadal changes in two types of the western North Pac...
The subarctic front is the northern boundary of the subtropical gyre. It is associated with the annual and April–September mean zero wind stress curl lines (which are similar), while the Kuroshio Extension is associated with wintertime zero wind stress curl. This means that part of the flow ...
Nutrient and Plankton Dynamics in the NE and NW Gyres of the Subarctic Pacific Ocean The western subarctic gyre (WSG) and the eastern Alaska Grye (AG) on each side of the subarctic North Pacific, have many similarities. In both gyres, macro... PAUL J. HARRISON,FRANK A. WHITNEY,ATSUSHI ...
