The characteristics of distribution of dissolved oxygen off the east coast of Korea were studied. The oxygen minimum layer was not clearly appeared on the vertical distribution of dissolved oxygen through the year. The dissolved oxygen content of the proper cold water of Japan Sea was 5.1-6.0ml/l which is very higher than those of the North Pacific region, and it means that the speed of transportation of a new and oxygen rich water from surface to deeper layer is relatively fast. Water masses in east coast of Korea can be classified by using of O$\_$2/-Salinity relations.
