오야시오 해류: 두 판 사이의 차이

Another important feature of the Oyashio Current is that during glacial periods, when lower [[sea level]] causes the formation of the [[Bering land bridge]], the current cannot flow and in the regions the Oyashio affects today, the level of cooling with the onset of glacial conditions (after an interglacial) is much less than in other areas of the Earth at similar latitudes. This allowed [[Tōhoku Region|Tōhoku]] and [[Hokkaidō]], which were the only areas of [[East Asia]] that receive enough snowfall to potentially form glaciers, to remain unglaciated except at high elevations during periods when Europe and [[North America]] were largely glaciated. This lack of glaciation explains why, despite its present climate being much colder than most of [[Europe]], East Asia has retained 96 percent of [[Pliocene]] tree genera, whereas Europe has retained only 27 percent.
