台湾海峡北部海区1998年2～3月温、盐平面分布及其特征分析

Analysis on Features of Temperature and Salinity in the Northern Taiwan Straits During February-March, 1998

根据1998年2～3月台湾海峡北部海区的CTD资料,进行各层次温度、盐度平面分布特征的分析,得到研究海区调查期间温、盐水平分布的以下几个特征:(1)在台湾海峡的西岸,存在一支由东北向西南流动的海水,其上层具有较低的温度和盐度;(2)在海峡的东部海域,有一支由西南向东北沿岸流动的海水,具有高温高盐的特性,可以向北延伸到26°N附近海域.

The distributional features of temperature and salinity in the northern Taiwan Straits have been analysed based on the CTD data during February - March, 1998. The characteristics of temperature and salinity are summarized as follows: (1) there exists a coastal water along the western coast of the Taiwan Straits , with low temperature and low salinity in the upper layer; (2) a high temperature and high salinity water tongue extends northeastward along the eastern coast of the Taiwan Straits.
