Overview
The goal is to understand the physical and optical processes occurring in the Japan/East Sea through the use of satellite thermal and ocean color remote sensing. We have created a climatology of the inherent optical properties using SeaWiFS satellite imagery to define how the bio-optical cycle is driven by the physical processes and circulation.
Our objective is to understand the coupling between the physical and bio-optical processing, and their variability. Our research illustrates the seasonal cycles of biological production and degradation and how they are distributed throughout the basin.
