| Abstract: | The Japan Sea circulation is numerically modeled with robust diagnostic terms included. The general features are nearly the same as previous prognostic models though small differences appear in local current fields, and agree with most of existing observation results. This model, however, seems to be more successful than prognostic ones in that the overshooting of the East Korean Warm Current, a northward western boundary current, is much reduced and the North Korean Cold Current, a southward western boundary current, is more enhanced. Based on the model results, discussions are made about the large convective structure and the global kinetic energy budget of the Japan Sea circulation. |
