Surface-Layer Circulations in Suruga Bay Induced by Intrusions of Kuroshio Branch Water

The water mass structure in Suruga Bay is strongly influenced by open-ocean water. In particular, it is suggested that intermittent intrusions of the Kuroshio water generate characteristic circulations in the surface layer of the bay. In this study, we investigated the processes of the intrusions of...
