Abstract
Numerical simulation by Modular Ocean Model2 (MOM2) is carried out to understand whole image of oceanic structure in the Japan Sea. MOM2 is the numerical simulation code which integrates governing equation and calculates development of momentum, temperature, and salinity. The study is successful to reproduce the flow pattern of oceanic circulation in the Japan sea, which includes meandering of Tsushima Warm Current and the polar front in the center of Japan Sea.
