Opposite Trends of Eddy Kinetic Energy in the Tropical Indo‐Pacific Ocean Since the 1990s
Oceanic mesoscale eddies are pivotal in redistributing mass and heat. Despite a warming‐induced increase in global oceanic stratification, previous studies have reported a global increase in mesoscale eddy activity, particularly in eddy‐rich regions ...

Significant Southern Hemisphere contribution to the Indonesian Throughflow over the last 800,000 years [PDF]
The low-latitude flow of water masses from the Pacific to the Indian Ocean, the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF), is a choke point of the surface ocean return flow of the ocean conveyor belt.

Genetic Diversification in a New Guinean Frog Genus (<i>Mantophryne</i>, Microhylidae) was Driven by Ancient Tectonic Activity and Climate Reorganisation. [PDF]
Our dated phylogeny and biogeographic analysis of Mantophryne, a microhylid frog genus endemic to New Guinea, revealed origins in the East Papuan Composite Terrane (EPCT) in the late Pliocene. Dispersal and diversification out from the EPCT was driven by tectonic activity and climate reorganisation, creating habitat corridors and isolations in the Late

Metagenomic analysis of deep-sea bacterial communities in the Makassar and Lombok Straits [PDF]
The extreme conditions of the deep-sea environment, including limited light, low oxygen levels, high pressure, and nutrient scarcity, create a natural habitat for deep-sea bacteria.

Structure and Variability of Indonesian Throughflow in Labani Canal
Libani Canal is one of the areas which the flows water masses of the Pacific Ocean toward Indonesian seas. The existence of Mindanao current that affects an input of Indonesian Through-flow should be predicted.

Amplitude modulations of seasonal variability in the Karimata Strait throughflow
The Karimata Strait (KS) throughflow between the South China Sea (SCS) and Java Sea plays an essential role in heat and freshwater budget in the SCS and dual roles in strengthening/reducing the primary Indonesian throughflow (ITF) in the Makassar Strait.

The effects of Halmahera on the Indonesian throughflow [PDF]
The pathways of the Pacific to Indian Ocean throughflow and the relative contributions of North Pacific (NP) and South Pacific (SP) water to the throughflow are examined using the Navy Layered Ocean Model. The roles of Halmahera Island in directing flow along the pathways and determining the composition of the throughflow are also studied.

Interannual variations of the Indonesian throughflow [PDF]
The relationship of Indonesian throughflow (ITF) transport to the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is investigated. Seasonal anomalies of ITF transport are found to be forced by anomalous local, alongshore (South Java) wind as well as by anomalous winds in the equatorial Pacific and Indian Oceans.
