摘要	The three dimensional structure of the western boundary current east of the Vietnam coast was determined from measurements by Argo profiling floats which deployed near the east of the Vietnam Coast in October 2007. The trajectories of the Argo floats provided robust evidence that there does exist southward flowing current along the Vietnam coast. The southward current begins at about 15A degrees N, 111A degrees E, flowing along the 1 000 m isobath and extending to 5A degrees N south. The estimated surface and parking depth velocities obtained from the floats suggest that this southward current can extend to 1 000 m depth. The mean surface velocity of the western boundary current is about 49 cm/s, with the maximum speed exceeding 100 cm/s occurring at 11.6A degrees N, 109.5A degrees E in the direction of 245A degrees. The mean parking depth (1 000 m) velocity is 12-16 cm/s with the maximum speed of 36 cm/s occurring at 12.1A degrees N, 109.7A degrees E in the direction of 239A degrees.
