Abstract
Distribution features of surface chlorophyll a were discussed according to the underway measurements of chlorophyll a conducted in the Taiwan Strait in August, 1998. The results showed that the high chlorophyll a values were situated upwelling area, and the chlorophyll a maximum were situated upwelling edge, because the difference of time began an intensive growth period of phytoplankton between upwelling zone and upwelling edge. The chlorophyll a values in the southern part of Taiwan Strait was higher than that in the northern part due to strong upwelling in the southern part of Taiwan Strait.
