Are the Bohai Sea and the Sea of Japan one sea?

The Bohai Sea and the Sea of Japan are not one sea.

First of all, it is clear that Bohai Sea is the inland sea of China. Surrounded by the sea on three sides, it is the smallest among Liaoning, Hebei, Shandong and Tianjin.

The Sea of Japan is the largest marginal sea in the northwest Pacific Ocean, and its eastern boundary extends from the north to Sakhalin Island, Hokkaido, Honshu and Kyushu in the Japanese archipelago. The western border is Russia in Eurasia; The southern border is the Korean Peninsula, and the whole Sea of Japan is surrounded by China, North Korea, South Korea and Russia.

18 15 years, Russian navigator A.J.v krudesen named it the Sea of Japan. The name of the Sea of Japan is disputed among South Korea, North Korea and Japan: South Korea calls it the East Sea (), while North Korea uses the East Sea of Korea (). In addition, a few people in China use the ancient name of Whale Sea in China.

Climate of the Sea of Japan:

The Sea of Japan has a temperate maritime monsoon climate, and the northeast monsoon prevails from 65438+February to March of the following year, and dry and cold air flows into the Sea of Japan, resulting in cooling and snowfall. The average temperature in Leng Yue (65438+ 10 month) is-19℃ in the north and 5℃ in the south, and the surface water temperature is -2 ~ 13℃.

A large amount of sea ice is formed in the north, especially in the coastal waters of Siberia. The ice age generally lasts from mid-October of 165438 to mid-February of the following year. After June, the southerly monsoon prevailed, and the warm and humid air current made the temperature rise, with abundant precipitation and fog (especially in the north). The average temperature in August is 65438 06℃ in the north and 24℃ in the south. The surface water temperature is 18 ~ 27℃.

The current in the Sea of Japan consists of the warm current to Malaysia in the north along the east coast and the cold current to Li Man in the south along the west coast, forming a counterclockwise circulation system. Ocean currents increase the difference of surface water temperature between north and south and between east and west.
