利用气象卫星热红外图像，获得了黄海和东海冬季海表温度（SST）的详细分布。通过原位温度测量校准图案中的等温线。利用DMSP、NOAA-5、6、GMS-1和TIROS-N等卫星资料，分析了近10年来南海SST的空间分布特征。冬季SST型具有“三明治”结构，即两个暖舌夹在一个冷舌之间。这种模式在11月底开始形成，到1月底已经形成，2月底开始下降，4月底消失。在SST模式中可以看出强烈的沿海锋。它们是山东半岛沿海锋、浙闽沿海锋和韩国沿海锋。根据海温场和这些锋的特征，讨论了冬季表层流的分布。
A detailed winter sea surface temperature (SST) pattern in the Yellow Sea and East China Sea is derived from meteorological satellite thermal infrared images. The isotherms in the pattern are calibrated by temperature measurements in situ. The features of SST patterns are analyzed using images taken from a variety of satellites (DMSP, NOAA-5,6, GMS-1, and TIROS-N) over the last 10 years. The winter SST pattern has a “sandwich” structure, which implies that two warm tongues sandwich one cold tongue. This pattern starts forming at the end of November, has formed by the end of January, begins to decline at the end of February, and disappears at the end of April. In the SST patterns strong coastal fronts can be discerned. They are the Shandong Peninsula coastal front, the Zhejiang-Fujian coastal front and the South Korean coastal front. Based on the features of SST patterns and these fronts, the winter surface currents are discussed.
