On the basis of the results from special investigations and relevant historical data, a description is given to the structure, mixing and shifts of the coastal upwelling front off Zhejiang. It is concluded that such shifts are primarily caused by the horizontal position and strength variation of the Taiwan Warm Current, with winds playing a secondary role. Janowitz's theory of topography-induced upwelling is applied to analyzing the formation of the Zhejiang coastal upwelling.
