Maritime Continent water cycle regulates low-latitude chokepoint of global ocean circulation
Nature Communications, 2019 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.

Variability in Makassar Strait Heat Flux and Its Effect on the Eastern Tropical Indian Ocean
Oceanography, 2018 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

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]
, 2004 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).

The effects of Halmahera on the Indonesian throughflow [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1999 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.

Interplay between the Indonesian Throughflow and the South China Sea Throughflow
Chinese Science Bulletin, 2006 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.

Genetic Diversity of Olive Ridley Lepidochelys Olivacea Associated with Current Pattern in Cendrawasih Bay, Papua [PDF]
, 2017 Cendrawasih Bay is habitat for olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea) which is directly adjacent to the Pacific Ocean. The presence and the diversity of L. olivacea in Cendrawasih Bay has been threatened.
