Abstract
A hydrographic survey was made on August 1-16, 1981 on the People's
Republic of China R/V Shijian to measure the regional hydrographic structure
in the East China Sea near the mouth of the Chang Jiang (Yangtze)
River. The objectives of the hydrographic program were to document the
spatial structure of the Chang Jiang discharge over the continental shelf
and characterize the river's influence on the shelf water masses during a
period of maximum river discharge. A summary of the hydrographic observations
made during Cruise ECS81-1 on the R/V Shijian is presented in graphic
form.
