Circulation of Marginal and Semi-Enclosed Seas (Sea of Japan and Related Process Studies)

Abstract

My long-term goal is to understand the circulation dynamics of marginal and semi-enclosed seas through numerical simulation. Understanding the weather-driven transient flows (especially in coastal regions), mesoscale variability, ventilation, seasonal and interannual variability, and flow interactions with the basin topography is part of this goal.
