More Information
Summary:The volume transport through the Kanmon Strait (Japan) is estimated from the sea level difference between the western and eastern ends of the strait and the results of numerical experimentation. The total phosphorus and total nitrogen fluxes through the Kanmon Strait are estimated from observations of the total phosphorus and total nitrogen concentrations and volume transport. The average total phosphorus and total nitrogen fluxes from Suo-Nada to Hibiki-Nada through the Kanmon Strait in 2002 were 1.3 tonP day super(-1) and 10 tonN day super(-1), respectively. They correspond to 52% and 24%, respectively, of total phosphorus and total nitrogen fluxes from land.
