(Upper left) Zonal section of the daily mean salinity (PSS-78) along 32° N on May 15, 2003 in the time of OFES. Contour intervals is 0.1. White contours show isopycnal depth at 26.4–26.8σθ. (2nd left to lower right) salinity on the 26.7 σθ surface in the western North Pacific based on 1/30° high resolution OFES data. White color contour means 400 m and 700 m depths on the 26.7σθ isopycnal surface. Each panel shows five-day intervals from Apr. 5 (2nd left) to May 10 (lower right). Red arrows indicate the filament structure consisting of small water parcels advecting southward
