Description

<p>Subtropical fromt that is one of the most distinct features in the upper ocean of the North Pacific subtropical gyre has been studied from comprehensive analyses of various data from satellite and hydrographic observations and atmospheric reanalysis. This article reviews the author's studies on physical properties and generation processes of mesoscale eddy in the subtropical front region, on detailed distribution and structure of the subtropical front, on frontogenesis due to mode waters in the thermocline north of the subtropical front,and on atmospheric influence of subtropical front through sea surface temperature front.</p>
