This special issue is the scientific legacy of the 10th WESTPAC International Scientific Conference, which was sponsored by State Oceanic Administration of China and the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO, and organized by the IOC SubCommission for the West Pacific (WESTPAC) and the First Institute of Oceanography of China, which was held in Qingdao, China during 17–20 April 2017 with more than 700 participants from 21 countries. During the conference, the international scientific steering committee announced the special issue of Acta Oceanologica Sinica for building a scientific legacy. Forty-five manuscripts were submitted with 20 papers accepted for this special issue. In this special issue, Afifi and Fadzil explored the thermocline and water masses variability during 1951 and 2014 in the southern South China Sea; Daud et al. detected the influence of ENSO on the upwelling and oceanic temperature fronts off Malaysia which are important for fishery production in this area; Guo et al. analyzed the Kurushio intrusion into the South China Sea by using observed Argos drifters from 1988 to 2012, and suggested that the sea level pressure plays key role for this intrusion; Kashem et al. analyzed the response of 8 oceanic parameters during tropical cyclone Viyaru in 2013 over the bay of Bengal which may help the forecasting ability of Typhoon; Rosali and Fadzil reported the oceanic temperature variability induced by tidal mixing off east coast of Peninsular Malaysia based on three years observations; Xia et al. simulated the summer circulation in the Bohai Sea based on a high-resolution wave-tide-circulation coupled model; Yin et al. developed the first jellyfish model which can be used to guide the stock enhancement; The accurate seasonal prediction of climate system has been a long-standing problem; Zhao et al. showed that the prediction skill of FIO-ESM is dramatically improved by 23.6% (11.6%) over the Climate Forecast System Version 2 for ENSO and NPV out of phase (in phase) at initial conditions; Afdal determined the origin of the suspended particulate matter in the seagrass meadow by using a stable isotope signature; Du et al. evaluated the
