Abstract
The ocean dynamics of the marginal seas in the Java-Makassar-Flores (JMF) Triangle seas facilitates the seasonal exchange of water masses between Java, Makassar, and Flores, which influences the occurrence of small pelagic fish. This research investigates seasonal fluctuations in sea currents, seawater temperature, salinity, and phytoplankton primary production (PPN and PPD) based on validated model output datasets from NEMO and PISCES from the INDESO simulation (2008–2015). The model demonstrated seasonal exchanges of the top 50 m of water masses in the area, where the eastward monsoon current transported freshwater (salinity<31 psμ) from the Java Sea to southern Makassar and Flores. This northwest monsoon produced a much fresher water in the southern region of Makassar and western region of Flores. During the southeast monsoon, the surface component of the Makassar throughflow, which transports saline water (salinity >34 PSU) into the Java Sea, pushes fresh Java waters westward. Seasonal salinity changes and PPN/PPD in the shelf region of southern Kalimantan correlated with substantial small pelagic fishing.
期刊介绍:
Continental Shelf Research publishes articles dealing with the biological, chemical, geological and physical oceanography of the shallow marine environment, from coastal and estuarine waters out to the shelf break. The continental shelf is a critical environment within the land-ocean continuum, and many processes, functions and problems in the continental shelf are driven by terrestrial inputs transported through the rivers and estuaries to the coastal and continental shelf areas. Manuscripts that deal with these topics must make a clear link to the continental shelf. Examples of research areas include:
Physical sedimentology and geomorphology
Geochemistry of the coastal ocean (inorganic and organic)
Marine environment and anthropogenic effects
Interaction of physical dynamics with natural and manmade shoreline features
Benthic, phytoplankton and zooplankton ecology
Coastal water and sediment quality, and ecosystem health
Benthic-pelagic coupling (physical and biogeochemical)
Interactions between physical dynamics (waves, currents, mixing, etc.) and biogeochemical cycles
Estuarine, coastal and shelf sea modelling and process studies.
