Air-sea interaction processes over the east-asian marginal seas surrounding the Korean peninsula

In this article, we describe the seasonal variation of air-sea interface fluxes of heat, momentum and moisture over the East Asian Marginal Seas (EAMS) surrounding the Korean Peninsula.

Description
Summary:In this article, we describe the seasonal variation of air-sea interface fluxes of heat, momentum and moisture over the East Asian Marginal Seas (EAMS) surrounding the Korean Peninsula. Surface layer meteorological observations for a period of about six years obtained from five oceanic buoys deployed in the Yellow Sea, Korean Strait and East (Japan) Sea form the database for this study. With the available database, monthly mean of sensible heat flux, latent heat flux and momentum flux obtained from the present analysis is compared with the existing climatological data over the EAMS.
