Abstract: | The Taiwan Warm Current Deep Water (or the East China Sea Upper Layer Water, or the East China Sea Subsurface Water) lying
in the deep and bottom layers off the coast of Fujian-Zhejiang is one of the main watermasses in the continental shelf region
of the western East China Sea. The hydrographical conditions and the fishery productions in this region are affected remarkably
by the decline and growth of the Taiwan Warm Current Deep Water.
Although the temperature, salinity and origin of the Taiwan Warm Current Deep Water have been investigated3] by oceanographers the world over, there are up to now few papers published on its characteristics of ariations (seasonal
and multiyear variations). Understanding of this problem will be helpful to further characterize this watermass. For this
reason, in this paper, section 28°N representing the middle Taiwan Warm Current Deep Water and section 30°N representing the
northern Taiwan Warm Current Deep Water are taken for examples, and the method of similar coefficient is used for analysis
of this problem.
