About The Sea Of Japan
It is a marginal sea in the western Pacific Ocean.
It is bordered by Russia and Sakhalin Island in the north, North Korea in the west, South Korea in the southwest, and the Japanese archipelago (Hokkaido, Honsh?, and Ky?sh? islands) in the east and south.
Its area is 377,600 square miles (978,000 square kilometers).
It is connected to the East China Sea in the south via the Tsushima and Korea straits, and to the Okhotsk Sea in the north via the La Perouse and Tatar straits.
In the east, it is linked to Japan's Inland Sea by the Kanmon Strait and the Pacific Ocean via the Tsugaru Strait.
The average depth is 1,667 meters.
Its deepest point is Dohoku Seamount, which is an undersea volcano.
Japan's moderate climate is mostly due to its comparatively warm oceans.
Only a few rivers drain into it, and their water accounts for less than one percent of the sea's total volume.
There are no big islands in the Sea of Japan. Except for the South Korean island of Ulleungdo, all of the other small islands are located near the eastern edge of the sea.
Mining for mineral reserves such as magnetite, natural gas, and petroleum is one of the key economic activities in the Sea of Japan.
Ports
Russia includes Vladivostok, Sovetskaya Gavan, Nakhodka, Alexandrovsk-Sakhalinsky, and Kholmsk.

Japan includes Niigata, Tsuruta, and Maizuru.
