This article reviews progress in our understanding of oceanic fronts around Japan and their
roles in air–sea interaction. Fronts associated with the Kuroshio and its extension, fronts …

We present a new surface-atmospheric dataset for driving ocean–sea-ice models based on
Japanese 55-year atmospheric reanalysis (JRA-55), referred to here as JRA55-do. The …

Accurate observational estimation of the ocean surface heat, momentum, and freshwater
fluxes is crucial for studies of the global climate system. Estimating surface flux using …

This paper analyzes surface climate variability in the climate forecast system reanalysis
(CFSR) recently completed at the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) …

Air–Sea Turbulent Heat Fluxes in Climate Models and Observational Analyses: What Drives
Their Variability? in: Journal of Climate Volume 32 Issue 8 (2019) Jump to Content Jump to …

Distributions of mixed layer depths around the centers of anti-cyclonic and cyclonic eddies in
the North Pacific Ocean were composited by using satellite-derived sea surface height …

The ocean–atmosphere exchanges of heat, water, and momentum are key elements of the
global climate system. The processes controlling these exchanges, methods by which they …

The thermal component of oceanic eddy available potential energy (EPE) generation due to
air‐sea interaction is proportional to the product of anomalous sea surface temperature …

A dominant paradigm for mid-latitude air-sea interaction identifies the synoptic-scale
atmospheric “noise” as the main driver for the observed ocean surface variability. While this …
