Wind stress over the Pacific Ocean east of Japan drives the shelf circulation east of China
Abstract
In the western Pacific Ocean, the Kuroshio cross-shelf intrusion and the shelf circulation are vital components of the coastal environment. However, the key dynamic factors driving them remained unclear. Our model and theoretical analysis show that wind stress over the open Pacific Ocean east of Japan drives a net equatorward water flux of 2.2 Sv, and this flux sets up a south-north sea surface drop from the East China Sea (ECS) to the Japan Sea...
