Order in Chaos in Ocean Currents -- Chaotic Mixing and Cross-Stream Transport in Idealized Models of Oceanic Currents -- Oceans from Space and Operative Oceanography -- Large-Scale Mixing and Transport in the Ocean with Synoptic Lagrangian Maps -- Identification and Study of Eddies in Altimetric and Numerically Generated Velocity Fields -- Large-Scale Mixing and Transport in the Sea of Japan/East Sea -- Impact of the Alaskan Stream Flow on Transport in the North-Western Pacific Ocean -- Lagrangian Fronts in the Ocean and Favorable Fishing Grounds -- Lagrangian Simulation of Propagation of Fukushima-Derived Radionuclides and their Monitoring in the Ocean -- Appendix. Numerical codes and receipts.

This book uses the Lagrangian approach, especially useful and convenient for studying large-scale transport and mixing in the ocean, to present a detailed view of ocean circulation. This approach focuses on simulations and on monitoring the trajectories of fluid particles, which are governed by advection equations. The first chapter of the book is devoted to dynamical systems theory methods, which provide the framework, methodology and key concepts for the Lagrangian approach. The book then moves on to an analysis of chaotic mixing and cross-stream transport in idealized models of oceanic meandering currents like the Gulfstream in the Atlantic, the Kuroshio in the Pacific, and Antarctic Circumpolar Current, after which the current state of physical oceanography is reviewed. The latter half of the book applies the techniques and methods already described in order to study eddies, currents, fronts and large-scale mixing and transport in the Far-Eastern seas and the north-western part of the Pacific Ocean. Finally, the book concludes with a discussion of Lagrangian simulation and monitoring of water contamination after the Fukushima disaster of 2011. The propagation of Fukushima-derived radionuclides, surface transport across the Kuroshio Extension current, and the role of mesoscale eddies in the transport of Fukushima-derived cesium isotopes in the ocean are examined, and a comparison of simulation results with actual measurements are presented. Written by some of the world leaders in the application of Lagrangian methods in oceanography, this title will be of benefit to the oceanographic community by presenting the necessary background of the Lagrangian approach in an accessible manner.
