Description

The upwelling area associated with the vortices are found along the eastern side of the Kuroshio in the east of Taiwan. One of them is located at around 24°N, on the south of the Ryukyu submarine ridge in spring and the location moves slightly southward in summer. The relation between the zooplankton biomass and the upwelling process in spring and summer are discussed, based on the results of the Keiten Maru and the Kagoshima Maru cruises for CSK in 1966-1968. The relation between the two is clearly found, that is, the zooplankton biomass increases with decreasing value of dynamic depth anomaly in spring, while in summer it becomes obscure.
