Abstract

The secondary entry portal of the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) from the Pacific to Indian Oceans is considered to be via the Halmahera Sea (HS). However, few ITF studies have been done within the passage. This motivated the Internal Tides and Mixing in the Indonesian Througflow (INDOMIX) program to conduct direct measurements of currents and its variability across the eastern path of the ITF. This study focused on the intra-seasonal variability of near-bottom current in HS (129°E, 0°S), its origin and correlation with surface zonal winds and sea surface height over the equatorial Pacific Ocean. The result showed a strong northwestward mean flow with velocity exceeding 40 cm/s, which represented the current-following topography with the northwest orientation. Meridional current component was much stronger than the zonal component. The energy of power spectral density (PSD) of the current peaked on 14-days and 27-days periods. The first period was presumably related to the tidal oscillation, but the latter may be associated with surface winds perturbation. Furthermore, cross-PSD revealed a significant coherency between the observed currents and the surface zonal winds in the central equatorial Pacific zonal winds (180°E-160°W), which corroborates westward propagation of intra-seasonal sea surface height signals along the 5°S with its mean phase speeds of 50 cm/s, depicting the low-latitude westward Rossby waves on intra-seasonal band.

Abstract

Teluk Cendrawasih (TC) merupakan salah satu teluk terbesar di Indonesia dan merupakan teluk semi tertutup yang memiliki biodiversitas hayati laut tinggi. Lokasi TC yang berada dekat ekuator dan berhadapan dengan Ekuator Samudera Pasifik bagian barat diduga memiliki dinamika dan variabilitas laut yang unik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji pola sirkulasi laut, variabilitas arus, biogeokimia serta pengaruh fenomena El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) di kawasan TC. Dataset deret-waktu yang digunakan adalah keluaran model sirkulasi laut dari Infrastructure Development of Space Oceanography (INDESO) dari tahun 2008-2015. Hasil penelitian terungkap bahwa pola sirkulasi arus permukaan di luar teluk dicirikan dengan pembalikan arah arus dua kali dalam setahun yang sejalan dengan pembalikan angin muson, sedangkan di dalam TC arus permukaan cenderung selalu mengalir keluar teluk. Sirkulasi di kedalaman 110 m dicirikan dengan dominasi Arus Pantai Papua (APP) yang bergerak secara permanen sepanjang tahun menuju barat laut dan terlihat terbentuk pusaran arus (eddy) pada musim timur. Arus muson terlihat sampai kedalaman 50 m, sedangkan APP berada pada kolom dari 50 m sampai 200 m (di Selat Biak) dan sampai 1000 m (di sisi Pasifik) dengan kecepatan maksimum 0,75 m/s. Rerata dan simpangan baku dari volume transpor APP adalah -25,25 (±11,1) Sv, sedangkan di Selat Biak -0,8756 (±0,5) Sv. Variabilitas dari transpor APP didominasi periodisitas tahunan.  Rerata volume transpor di pintu masuk barat TC adalah 0,03 (±0,1096) Sv dimana variabilitasnya pada periode intra musiman.  Variabilitas beberapa parameter biogeokimia di TC dan Pasifik didominasi periodisitas antar tahunan, tahunan dan intra musiman. Variasi antar tahunan dari parameter tersebut berkoherensi kuat dengan suhu permukaan laut di kawasan ekuator Pasifik, sebagai wilayah ENSO.

Abstract

The eastward propagation of atmospheric waves along the equatorial band from the central equatorial Indian Ocean to the western Pacific Ocean passing through the Indonesian Maritime Continent (IMC), known as the intraseasonal Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO) event, plays an important role on modulating both atmospheric and upper ocean dynamics along its path. This study aims to investigate the MJO active phase dynamics and its impact on changes in near-surface seawater temperature and mixed layer depth (MLD) anomaly in the Banda Sea Indonesia, using multi-datasets of atmospheric reanalysis, satellites derived sea surface temperature (SST), and Argo float between 2017 - 2018. This study revealed that the MJO waves propagate eastward along the southern equator-line over the IMC and pass through the Banda Sea, associated with significant decreased on Outgoing Longwave Radiation (OLR) and increased in zonal wind speed at 850hPa. The study result shows anomalous increased on surface wind speed and SST cooling during of MJO active phase. The amplitude peaks of filtered ocean-atmosphere variables range between 30 – 60 days. Argo float datasets in the Banda Sea for the first time captured upper ocean responses to the arrival of the MJO active phase, as characterized by a negative temperature anomaly of ~0.3°C in the surface mixed layer, large temperature anomaly of ~0.8°C in the thermocline layer and the deepening of the MLD of ~25 m. Hence, the MJO active phase impacts significantly on surface and vertical temperature cooling and regulate upper ocean mixing intensity in the Banda Sea.
