  • The Seasonal Variability of Sea Surface Temperature and Chlorophyll-A Concentration in the South of Makassar Strait
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia Environmental Sciences 33 ( 2016 ) 583 – 599 The 2nd International Symposium on LAPAN-IPB Satellite for Food Security and Environmental Monitoring 2015, LISAT-FSEM 2015 The seasonal variability of sea surface temperature and chlorophyll-a concentration in the south of Makassar Strait Bisman Nababan*, Novilia Rosyadi, Djisman Manurung, Nyoman M. Natih, and Romdonul Hakim Department of Marine Science and Technology, Bogor Agricultural University, Jl. Lingkar Akademik, Kampus IPB Darmaga, Bogor 16680, Indonesia Abstract The sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) variabilities in the south of Makassar Strait were mostly affected by monsoonal wind speed/directions and riverine freshwater inflows. The east-southeast (ESE) wind (May-October) played a major role in an upwelling formation in the region starting in the southern tip of the southern Sulawesi Island. Of the 17 years time period, the variability of the SST values ranged from 25.7°C (August 2004) - 30.89°C (March 2007). An upwelling initiation typically occurred in early May when ESE wind speed was at <5 m/s, a fully developed upwelling event usually occurred in June when ESE wind speed reached >5 m/s, whereas the largest upwelling event always occurred in August of each year. Upwelling event generally diminished in September and terminated in October. At the time of the maximum upwelling events (August), the formation of upwelling could be observed up to about 330 km toward the southwest of the southern tip of the Sulawesi island. Interannually, El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) intensified the upwelling event during the east season through an intensification of the ESE wind speed.

  • Summary: This Manuscript Contributes a Reconstruction of Paleo Sea-Level Position at 24 Points in Time Throughout the Mid to Late Holocene
    cp-2019-63 Review Feb. 2020 Late Holocene (0-6ka) sea-level changes in the Makassar Strait, Indonesia (Bender et al.) Summary: This manuscript contributes a reconstruction of paleo sea-level position at 24 points in time throughout the mid to late Holocene. Authors interpret the new sea-level index points from the age, elevation, and paleo-water depth interpretation of fossil fringing reefs across SE Sulawesi near Makassar, Indonesia. In contrast to other coral-based reconstructions of past sea- level changes, but in keeping with other Holocene reconstructions from the SW Pacific (e.g. Hallmann et al., 2018), authors evaluate fossil reef growth in a fascinating morphology – microatolls – highlighting the potential for reconstructing past sea-level in great detail using this approach. Additionally, authors combine new data with previous data from two other islands near Makassar (recalculated results of three previous studies to directly compare them), which demonstrate higher-than-present relative (local) sea-level (RSL) during the late Holocene. Results and methods described here underscore the importance of evaluating fossil microatolls in the context of nearby living microatolls. Authors directly compare the elevations of fossil microatolls with their modern counterparts to evaluate the relationship between highest living coral (HLC) and the tidal cycle. Similar to previous works, this study finds that this relationship varies greatly on small spatial scales. To reconstruct paleo sea-level from fossil microatoll elevation requires the assumption that the relationship between HLC and the tidal cycle at that site has remained the same since the microatoll formed. Wisely, this study does not attempt to “connect the dots” and provide an RSL curve, but instead provides sea-level index points that can be compared with other Holocene RSL reconstructions and RSL predictions from GIA modeling.

(For example, the 27 August 1883 eruptions of Krakatoa produced a series of tsunamis that killed over 36,000 people in Indonesia.) However, most federal governments and international regarded the overall tsunami threat in the Indian Ocean as minor – prior to the 26 December 2004 event. Today we discuss the roots of this complacency and explore how it might be avoided as a consequence of the Mission 2009 design.

  • Undiscovered Petroleum Resources of Indonesia by John Kingston
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Undiscovered Petroleum Resources of Indonesia by John Kingston Open-File Report 88-379 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial standards and stratigraphic nomenclature 1988 ASSESSMENT OF RECOVERABLE ENERGY RESOURCES The World Energy Resources Program of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Intends to develop reliable and credible estimates of undiscovered recoverable petroleum resources throughout the world. Initial program efforts have focused on the major producing areas of the world to gain a broad geological understanding of the characteristics of petroleum occurrence for purposes of resource assessment, as well as for analysis of production potential. Investigations of production potential are carried out In cooperation with other U.S. Government agencies; specifically, the studies of the main free world exporting nations, of which this study Is a part, are carried out In cooperation with the Foreign Energy Supply Assessment Program of the Department of Energy. The estimates represent the views of a U.S. Geological Survey study team and should not be regarded as an official position of the U.S. Government. The program seeks to Investigate resource potential at the basin level, primarily through analogy with other petroleum regions, and does not necessarily require, therefore, current exploration Information that Is commonly held proprietary. In conducting the geological Investigations, we Intend to build a support base of publicly available data and regional geologic synthesis against which to measure the progress of exploration and thereby validate the assessment. Most of these Investigations will lead directly to quantitative resource assessments; resource assessment, like exploration, to be effective, must be an ongoing process taking advantage of changing Ideas and data availability the results produced being progress reports reflecting on a state of knowledge at a point In time.

  • Celebes Sea by Global Ocean Associates Prepared for Office of Naval Research – Code 322 PO
    An Atlas of Oceanic Internal Solitary Waves (February 2004) Celebes Sea by Global Ocean Associates Prepared for Office of Naval Research – Code 322 PO Celebes Sea Overview The Celebes Sea is located in the western Pacific Ocean north of the Indonesian Island of Celebes and south of the Sulu Sea and the Philippines (Figure 1). It is a deep-water sea, roughly circular with several exits to the Sulu Sea (to the north), the Makassar Strait (to the south), and the Phillipine and Molucca Seas (to the east). Figure 1. Bathymetry of the Celebes Sea. [Smith and Sandwell, 1997] Observations Like the Sulu Sea to the north, the Celebes Sea has a depth of over 4000 meters. It is surrounded by a shallow water regime along the edges of the adjacent landmasses and islands. The water depth in the northern region changes rapidly, from over 4000 m in Sulu Sea to approximately 100 m in the area across the Sulu Archipelago, returning to over 4000 m in the Celebes Sea. These bathymetric changes take place over approximately 150-km of horizontal distance. A similar situation takes place at the eastern end among the Kepulauan Sangi Islands. Both of these areas appear to be the sources of the internal waves observed in the Celebes Sea. There has been very little scientific research on the internal waves in the Celebes Sea. Satellite imagery indicates the internal waves are similar in character to those observed in the Sulu Sea.
