Tropical and Subtropical Wind Forcing Could Affect Interannual Variability of Kuroshio and Luzon Undercurrent
Kuroshio in the western North Pacific is one of the world's most energetic western boundary currents. In the east of Luzon Island, the northward Kuroshio at its origin and the underlying southward Luzon Undercurrent (LUC), play an important role in shap...Kuroshio in the western North Pacific is one of the world's most energetic western boundary currents.

Study Sheds Light on Estimation of Oceanic Barrier Layer Structures
The oceanic barrier layer is situated between the base of the ocean's density mixed layer and the top of the isothermal layer, with its thickness fluctuations directly influencing the ocean's vertical mixing process. Changes in the barrier layer impact ...The oceanic barrier layer is situated between the base of the ocean's density mixed layer and the top of the isothermal layer, with its thickness fluctuations directly influencing the ocean's vertical mixing process.

How Does Arctic Sea Ice Change at Different Spatiotemporal Scales?
In recent years, the warming rate of the Arctic has been 2-4 times that of the global average, which has had a significant impact on climate change in the Northern Hemisphere.In recent years, the warming rate of the Arctic has been 2-4 times that of the global average, which has had a significant impact on climate change in the Northern Hemisphere. However, the physical mechanisms of Arctic sea ice changes remain unclear, an...

Study Reveals Heterogeneous Mantle Source Compositions for Boninite from Bonin and Troodos
Subduction-zone magmas are characterized by high fluid contents and Fe3+/ΣFe ratios, which are closely associated with slab-derived fluids during subduction. However, instead of a heavier iron isotope composition preferred under an oxidized state, arc ...Subduction-zone magmas are characterized by high fluid contents and Fe3+/ΣFe ratios, which are closely associated with slab-derived fluids during subduction.
