The trends of sea surface temperature (SST) variations derived from NOAA satellite data in the Northeast Asian Waters (NAW) were quantified using NOAA satellite data for 19 years (1990~2008). The annual mean SSTs were generally increased in the NAW. However, the SST was decreased in some areas of the East Sea in the NAW. The areas in the East Sea were coincided with the same places which SST was decreased in winter season. The annual amplitudes of SST were increased in the northern parts of the East China Sea, the Korean Straits and the southwestern parts of the East Sea. However, the annual amplitudes of SST were decreased in the other waters. The SST was increased in the southwestern parts of the Yellow Sea in winter but it was decreased in summer season for 19 years (1990~2008). The SST variations in the northwestern parts of the East Sea (NWES) in summer and winter seasons were increased at the same period of time for 19 years (1990~2008). The rates of SST rise in the NWES in winter were higher than those of summer season. Therefore, the annual amplitude in the NWES was decreased.
