Atmospheric Forcing and Its Spatial Variability Over the Japan Sea

Abstract

The long-term goal of this study is to improve our understanding of the marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL), its spatial structure and variability, and the resultant ocean surface forcing over the Japan/East Sea (JES).
