A large area of the East China Sea (ECS) is a part of a broad shallow epicontinental sea which includes the semi-enclosed Huanghai (Yellow) Sea to the north (Fig. 1). It is connected with the South China Sea at the southwest through the Taiwan Strait and to the Japan Sea at the northeast through the Korea Strait. East and south of the Ryukyu Archipelago is the North Pacific Ocean. Kuroshio enters the ECS east of Taiwan. It flows along the shelf edge until around 29 30'N where it leaves the shelf and re-enters the Pacific Ocean through the Tokara Strait. All observations northeast of Taiwan have always yielded evidence of the intrusion of Kuroshio water onto the shelf (Su and Pan, 1990).
