Abstract
The results of studies of the structure and dynamics of water in the zone of a large-scale cyclonic gyre in the northern half of the Sea of Japan are presented, where satellite IR images annually in the autumn-winter period most clearly show two areas of low temperatures, separated by the influx of warm Tsushima waters from Japan. The location of these thermal structures coincides with the location of the western and northern cyclonic gyres, which are inextricably linked with deep upwelling. During the autumn-winter periods 2019-2021 it has been established that deep upwelling in the northwestern part of the Sea of Japan extends from the bottom to the surface layer, focusing along the axial line passing through the Pervenets Rise and the Bersenev and Vasilkovsky ridges in the area of 42° N. between 132°E and 135.5° E. The western cyclonic gyre, located in the western part of the large-scale cyclonic gyre in the region of the considered deep upwelling, is a large topographic eddy. In the northern part of the large-scale cyclonic gyre, deep upwelling is confined to the continental clone, and the small northern cyclonic gyre is also located there. It is assumed that in the autumn-winter period the interaction of anticyclones that form vortex belts with cyclonic gyres leads to an increase in deep circulation. The peculiarity of the variability of the speed of deep currents - an increase from October to March, is probably due to the nature of the development of vertical and transverse horizontal circulation in the system of cyclonic gyres - vortex belts as a result of the intensification of deep upwelling with increased winds from the northern directions in winter.
