A new 500-m gridded digital bathymetric data set has been produced by compiling available shipboard bathymetric data supplemented by glo bal bathymetric data sets in the area between 18°N and 27°N, and from 117°E to 125°E. Combined with topographic data from GTOP030, a global land data set in 30 arc-second gr id spacing, this new digital elevation model (DEM) reveals the regional as well as local morphology of Taiwan and its offshore area. Spatial resolution of 1 km is achieved in the area off eastern
