Abstract
We have made possible a compilation of the exact constant currents by separating tidal currents from sea currents. Then, sea current data should be corrected for an elimination of measurement errors in ADCP data based on direction change or pitch and roll in navigation of a survey vessel. This correction method has been developed by one of the authors.
In this paper, the results of our application for the East China Sea are shown by the original current pattern of the Tsushima warm current and the Yellow Sea warm current. Moreover, we consider it is clarified that the cold anticlockwised eddy exsists at northern part in the vicinity of the Kuroshio turning point in the same Sea. Justly, both NOAA-AVHRR imagery and Argos bouy data support these results.
