The characteristics of SST and SSS are summarized as follows: There are several upwellings and diluted water in the Taiwan Straits. The upwellings are divided into two kinds: those along the western coast of the Taiwan Straits and those around the Taiwan Shoal. There are three sources of diluted water: diluted water of the Jiulongjiang River,diluted water of the Zhujiang River and diluted water of the Minjiang River.展开更多
