Fig. 1From: Changes in surface water masses in the northern East China Sea since the Last Glacial Maximum based on diatom assemblagesa Bathymetric map showing the location of Core KY07-04 PC01, MD98-2195 (yellow star), A7, and DGKS9604 (yellow circle) in the East China Sea. Dotted lines indicate 100Â m water depth. Surface water masses (Kuroshio, Chinese coastal water, Changjiang River Diluted Water (CRDW), and Tsushima Warm Current (TSWC)) are shown. b Lower panels show the annual mean of sea-surface temperature (SST) and c sea-surface salinity (SSS) based on the World Ocean Atlas 2018 (Locarnini et al. 2018; Zweng et al. 2018)Back to article page
