Characteristics of zooplankton in northern coastal Taiwan during NE monsoon initial period

本文报道台湾北部沿岸海城东北季风初期浮游动物的特点。台湾西北沿岸海域的浮游动物生物量和密度高于台湾东北沿岸海域，但是浮游动物种类在东北沿岸海域却较丰富。台湾西北沿岸海域浮游动物属于暖水近岸种类，来自台湾海峡从南到北暖流。台湾东北沿岸海域浮游动物群落包含来自东海陆架水的种类，例如中华哲水蚤、太平洋磷虾，也包含有黑潮水的热带种和暖水近岸种。

The present paper describes the characteristics of zooplankton in the northern coastal water of Taiwan during the initial period of NE monsoon. The average biomass and density of zooplankton in the north-western coastal water of Taiwan are higher than of that in the north-eastern coastal water of Taiwan- But the numbers of species are dominant in the north-eastern coastal water of Taiwan. In north-western coastal water of Taiwan, the species in the zooplankton community belonging to warm neritic species, come from south to north warm current of Taiwan Strait. In the north-eastern coastal water of Taiwan, the zoo-pIankton communlty consists of warnl temperate species such as Calanus sinicus, Euphausia pacipica, etc. They come from warm nerltic species, continental shelf water of East China Sea and others come from the tropical species of Kuroshio.
