Abstract Since I started the study of physical oceanography as a master student of Professor Yoshida in Tokyo University, I have been being engaged in the research of physical oceanography with various topics ...such as continental shelf waves, Kuroshio large meander, Ryukyu Current, Tsushima Current monitoring, numerical modeling of the Japan Sea circulation, etc. Among those, the dynamics of the Japan Sea oceanic circulation has been attracting me for over recent 20 years. Since the Japan Sea is a "miniature of the global ocean", the understandings of its dynamics of the circulation can be applied to understand the dynamics of the global ocean. The study of the Japan Sea circulation was accelerated through the international cooperative study "CREAMS" between Kyushu University, Seoul National University and FERHMI (Russia) from 1993 to 1998. The ADCP monitoring of the Tsushima Current using a ferry boat "Camellia" between Hakata and Busan from 1997 has accumulated a large amount of high quality current data across the Tsushima Straits with very high spatial and temporal data density during past 15 years. Numerical modeling and data analysis as well as the monitoring data enable us to understand the Japan Sea circulation greatly deeper during past two decades.show more
