Outline of Final Research Achievements |
By using eddy-resolving 34-year hindcast simulation of a quasi-global ocean, we have discovered the deep ocean response to explosive cyclones developing over the Northwestern Pacific Ocean. Under explosive cyclones, a horizontal divergence appears in ocean mixed layer above 60 m depth, upward flow that reaches 2000 m depth and cyclonic circulation that reaches ocean floor of 6000 m depth are induced. The upward flow continues for about one week as an internal wave with near-inertial oscillation. In addition, according to interannual variability of explosive cyclone activity, the amplitude of the vertical motion and the day-scale temperature variations are modified in the deep ocean. To explore the oceanic response to explosive cyclones in the real world, high-frequency temperature and salinity profiles under explosive cyclones in winters in 2015/16 and 2016/17 have been observed using six ARGO floats and four surface drifters.
