Evidence for Indonesian Throughflow slowdown during Heinrich events 3-5 [PDF]
We present sea surface and upper thermocline temperature records (60-100 year temporal resolution) spanning marine isotope stage 3 (similar to 24-62 ka B.

New Surveys of a Branch of the Indonesian Throughflow [PDF]
Global ocean circulation is a primary mechanism for transporting energy and nutrients around the planet. At its most basic level, this circulation transports water from the Pacific Ocean through the Indonesian archipelago into the Indian Ocean; these waters join the Agulhas Current, which loops around Africa and in turn joins the Gulf Stream in the ...

Water sources of the Lombok, Ombai and Timor outflows of the Indonesian throughflow
The Lombok Strait (LS), Ombai Strait (OS), and Timor Passage (TP) are three major outlets of the Indonesian Throughflow to the Indian Ocean. Here, sources and pathways of the LS, OS, and TP outflows are explored by a Lagrangian particle tracking analysis

Atlantic Ocean Heat Transport Enabled by Indo-Pacific Heat Uptake and Mixing [PDF]
The ocean transports vast amounts of heat around the planet, helping to regulate regional climate. One important component of this heat transport is the movement of warm water from equatorial regions toward the poles, with colder water flowing in return.

Maritime Continent water cycle regulates low-latitude chokepoint of global ocean circulation
The freshwater surface layer from the south China seas weakens the Indonesian throughflow during boreal winter, but the impact of the monsoon water cycle of the maritime continent on this freshwater plug is unknown.

The Reversal Indian Ocean Waters
The Reversal Indian Ocean Waters (RIOWs), carried by flows in a direction opposite to the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF), is investigated in the Lagrangian framework using the simulative results of a high‐resolution western Pacific and northern Indian ...

Sensitivity of equatorial Pacific and Indian Ocean watermasses to the position of the Indonesian Throughflow [PDF]
The sensitivity of the thermal structure of the equatorial Pacific and Indian Ocean pycnoclines to a model's representation of the Indonesian Straits connecting the two basins is investigated.

Oceanic forcing of interannual and multidecadal climate variability in the southwestern Indian Ocean: evidence from a 160 year coral isotopic record (La Réunion, 55°E, 21°S) [PDF]
We have developed a new 163-year bimonthly coral δ18O record from La Réunion (55°E, 21°S). Interannual variations in coral δ18O are coherent with the Southern Oscillation Index but not with regional sea surface temperature (SST).

Variability in Makassar Strait Heat Flux and Its Effect on the Eastern Tropical Indian Ocean
The heat flux anomaly (HFa) within Makassar Strait, Indonesia, is investigated using observed velocity time series and El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO)-scaled temperature profiles. Direct measurements of velocity from 40 m to 740 m depth were recorded

Earth’s climate, responding to the different thermodynamic properties of the land and ocean surfaces, is sensitive to the continental configuration and distribution of mountain ranges. This is clearly seen in the pattern of mean annual and seasonal range
