    Seasonal to interannual variations in the intensity and central position of the surface Kuroshio east of Taiwan
    (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2013-09-01) Hsin Y.-C.; B. Qiu; T.-L. Chiang; C.-R. Wu
    Seasonal and interannual changes of surface Kuroshio intensity and central position east of Taiwan during 1993–2012 are investigated by quantitatively analyzing the satellite altimetry product. The Kuroshio moves inshore (offshore) off northeast of Taiwan in winter (summer), whereas it has an offshore (inshore) path off southeast of Taiwan in winter (summer). The seasonal change of heat flux over the East China Sea shelf is found to cause the seasonality of the Kuroshio central position off northeast of Taiwan, whereas the seasonal Kuroshio movement off southeast of Taiwan is found to be induced by the combined effect of the Kuroshio changes through the Luzon Strait and the eastern Luzon Island. In contrast to this y-dependent path changes, the Kuroshio becomes weaker (stronger) as a whole east of Taiwan in winter (summer). On the interannual time scales, the Kuroshio throughout the eastern coast of Taiwan intensifies and has a concurrent offshore path during the periods of 1995–1997 and 2004–2007. The relative intensity of cyclonic eddies to anticyclonic eddies off eastern Taiwan are found to contribute to these interannual Kuroshio changes.

    Fluctuations of the thermal fronts off northeast Taiwan.
    (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2011-10-01) Hsin, Y.-C.; T.-L. Chiang; C.-R. Wu
    A high-resolution sea surface temperature (SST) data derived from several satellites is used to investigate the variability of the thermal front off northeastern Taiwan. Hidden by a dominant annual cycle, the SST data cannot reveal the thermal front fluctuation in the form of Hovm闤ler diagram. An innovative methodology has been applied to the SST satellite imagery to derive the SST Standardized Index (SSTSI), capable of revealing the frontal variability with multiple time scales. Principal component analysis shows that the SSTSI variation consists mainly of two modes. Mode 1 represents a strong annual cycle related to the seasonal reversal of the monsoonal winds. The temperature gradient is enhanced in winter and a cold dome is observed off northern Taiwan in summer. Mode 2 is highly correlated with the upstream Kuroshio variability. The shoreward (seaward) migration of the thermal front takes place when the Kuroshio transport weakens (strengthens). The results are consistent with transports estimated by tidal gauge measurements, satellite altimeter-based sea level anomaly, and surface flow patterns derived from high-frequency radars. Mode 2 is coherent with the Kuroshio transport through the East Taiwan Channel at periods of 120 and 45 d with a time lag of 40 and 11 d, respectively. This 120 d fluctuation is due to the interaction between westward-propagating eddies and the Kuroshio east of Taiwan, while the 45 d signal arises from the Kuroshio's self-instability. The interannual variations of the SST pattern in winter and summer are also discussed.
