In order to understand tidal circulation and oceanic current for the seas around Taiwan, this study use a baroclinic unstructured grid model to build a high resolution model. This model use semi-implicit method to solve the dynamic of ocean movement and larger time step can be used to calculate. Unstructured grid can be used to resolve complex coastline and variation of depth. TaiDBMv6 depth data were chosen to describe the depth distribution and grid mesh size were determined by local depth, minimum mesh size is about 0.75 minutes, and maximum 13 minutes. Tidal boundaries use 8 constituents derived from FES2004 and calibrated with 34 tide station records. Data of 2009 were used to evaluate the model results. The average of all station root mean square error was 10.1 cm. Station at east side of Taiwan have smaller errors, which almost lower than 5 cm. The maximum error can be found inside Taiwan Strait, about 25cm, mainly caused by lack of depth data near the coastal area. For oceanic current model, GFS and NFS-MC CWB wind forecast were used as meteorology input. Initial fields and boundary condition are derived from HYCOM results. Nudging of salinity and temperature also were used to stabilize the model. Transport of Kuroshio of 2009 is about 17.0¡Ó3.2Sv. Maximum value is about 28.6Sv, occurred in summer. Minimum value is about 8.3Sv, occurred in winter.
