Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Better understanding of oceanic conditions and variability in the regions covered by warm surface water in the eastern Indian Ocean and the Indonesian Archipelago are imperative to clarify responsible processes in ocean variations and impacts of climate change on them. We conducted intensive observations using the research vessel “Hakuho-Maru” and the Indonesian research vessels “Baruna Jaya” to obtain crucial data and samples for research on the physical, chemical, and biological processes in the ocean. The obtained samples and data contributed to deepen our understanding on the physical mechanisms of ocean variability and the relationship between physical phenomena and chemical and biological processes, as well as biogeochemical and ecological dynamics in the target area.
