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

The Indonesian throughflow, its variability and centennial change
The Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) is an important component of the upper cell of the global overturning circulation that provides a low-latitude pathway for warm, fresh waters from the Pacific to enter the Indian Ocean.

Interplay between the Indonesian Throughflow and the South China Sea Throughflow
Analysis both based on the wind stress and ocean assimilation dataset shows that the interannual variability of the Indonesian Throughflow and the South China Sea (Luzon Strait) Throughflow is out of phase. Wind anomaly forcing in the equatorial Pacific plays an important role in setting up this phase relation.

The Indonesian Throughflow response to Indo‐Pacific climate variability [PDF]
AbstractThe Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) is the only open pathway for interocean exchange between the Pacific and Indian Ocean basins at tropical latitudes. A proxy time series of ITF transport variability is developed using remotely sensed altimeter data.

The rare triple-dip 2020–2023 La Niña event has resulted in a series of extreme climate events across the globe. Here, we reveal the role of tropical Indo-Pacific oceanic interactions in driving the first triple-dip La Niña of the twenty-first century ...

The Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) connects the tropical Pacific and Indian Oceans and is critical to the regional and global climate systems. Previous research indicates that the Indo-Pacific pressure gradient is a major driver of the ITF, implying the ...

Abstract While the far Western Tropical Pacific is known for interannual variability, we find intraseasonal variability (ISV) actually dominates surface chlorophyll (SChl) fluctuations, explaining >30% of variance. The Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) acts as the key driver through three mechanisms: (a) positive MJO phase vertical mixing (enhanced winds

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

Stemflows and Preferential Flows: A Historical Review and Challenges for the Future
Possible implementation of stemflow in the MIPS model where all water in the system is represented as particles in pathways of specified velocity. Stemflow (green particles) can be treated as a localised input with probabilities of entering higher velocity pathways than throughfall, depending on the input rates.
