WG for Ocean Extremes

Overview

The Working Group (WG) for Ocean Extremes has been established to promote information exchange and research collaboration among research groups in “Habitable Japan”. The WG focuses mainly on studies of ocean extremes, which are characterized as intense ocean physical, chemical, and biological variability and related air-sea interactions that occur on relatively short time scales and small spatial scales around Japan. The mailing lists and online seminars organized by this WG are open to participation by researchers and students outside of this KAKENHI grant. If you would like to participate, please subscribe to the WG mailing list using the form below.
