No signals from July to September. No clear evidences indicate the eddy have close relation with local wind Anticyclonic eddy off Vietnam coast in Summer Location：off southeast Vietnam coast，not stable in location Scale：larger than 300 km，sometimes occupy the deep area south of 12°N Life cycle：shaped in the late of Spring, move northward (southward) before (after) July，die in October * winter summer Distribution of meso-scale eddies from remote sensing data in the South China Sea Xuhua Cheng, private communication Temporal evolutions of the buoy 22517.
