Regional climate models (RCMs) have been developed and extensively applied for
dynamically downscaling coarse resolution information from different sources, such as …

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 …

Owing to the turbulent nature of the ocean, mesoscale eddies are omnipresent. The impact
of these transitory and approximately circular sea surface temperature fronts on the …

Separation of Climatological Imprints of the Kuroshio Extension and Oyashio Fronts on the
Wintertime Atmospheric Boundary Layer: Their Sensitivity to SST Resolution Prescribed for …

Using wavelet analysis, wavelet-based principal component analysis (WPCA), composite
analysis and scale-averaged wavelet power (SAWP) of seasonal precipitation, we …

Strong cold air outbreaks caused heavy snowfall over the inland areas of the Sea of Japan
coast of Japan in mid‐December 2020. The 48‐hr accumulated snowfall during the term …

Abstract The Kuroshio Extension (KE) fluctuates between its different dynamic regimes on
(quasi) decadal time scales. In its stable (unstable) regime, the KE jet is strengthened …

In the extratropical regions, surface winds enhance upward heat release from the ocean to
atmosphere, resulting in cold surface ocean: surface ocean temperature is negatively …

The dynamical response of rapidly developing extratropical cyclones to sea surface
temperature (SST) variations over the western Kuroshio–Oyashio confluence (WKOC) …
