On the southeastern coast of Brazil, the bays of Ilha Grande and Sepetiba are linked by the Ilha Grande Channel, where remarkably strong currents have been consistently observed. Tidal forces cannot explain the strength of these currents. Previous resear...

Upwelling is a widespread phenomenon in the ocean and plays key roles in the marine environment, marine fishery and air?sea carbon exchange. In coastal regions, the upwelling is usually modulated by tides and complex topography, but the dynamical mechani...

Cavitation is one of the most important aspects of the stable and safe operation of a centrifugal pump. To examine the dynamics of cavitation vortex in a centrifugal pump, the cavitating flow is investigated by using the modified shear stress transport (...

A pressure sensor, located for four months in the middle of a 1275 m-long taut deep-ocean mooring in 2380 m water depth above a seamount with sub-surface top-buoys and seafloor anchor-weight, demonstrates narrow-band spectral peaks of deterministic well-...

Offshore wind farms (OWFs) generate large-scale wind wakes, which might lead to upwelling/downwelling. Understanding the vertical marine response to the wake effects is crucial for assessing the ecological impacts of OWFs and optimizing their co-deployme...

The turbidity maximum zone (TMZ) plays an important role in the morphology and ecosystems of estuaries. The distributions of TMZ in Hangzhou Bay (HZB) and mechanisms of sediment fluxes in TMZ have been studied by applying a fully calibrated three-dimensi...

In a multilevel bifurcated estuary, the channels between the bifurcated branches play important roles in the exchanges of water and salt. In the Changjiang Estuary, the Hengsha Channel (HC) connects the North Channel (NC) and the North Passage (NP). In t...

The vertical structure and seasonal variability of shear were examined using nearly three years of mooring ADCP (acoustic Doppler current profiler) data on the southwestern continental slope of the East China Sea (ECS). Shear spectra suggest that the sub...

The driving mechanisms of mesoscale processes and associated heat transport in the Japan/East Sea (JES) from 1990 to 2010 were examined using eddy-resolving ocean model simulations. The simulated circulation showed correctly reproduced JES major basin-sc...

The climatology of the mesoscale eddies in the upper layer of the South China Sea (SCS) is investigated for an understanding of its genesis using the outputs from a 1/12.5° ocean reanalysis. Employed is a recently developed multiscale energetics formalis...
