【 摘 要 】

During southeast monsoon, along the western coast of Sumatra Island and southern coast of Java Island are known as the coastal upwelling areas denoted by the occurrence of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) cooling and chlorophyll-a blooming. Located between Sumatra and Java Islands, Sunda Strait waters may give different response to the southeasterly wind blowing above. Using SST and chlorophyll-a data obtained from daily MODIS level 3 during 2006-2016, this study demonstrated the evidence on how bathymetry and topography modified the effect of southeasterly wind on the spatial variability of SST and chlorophyll-a. All datasets were composed into monthly and monthly climatology. The area in the center of Sunda Strait had the lowest chlorophyll-a concentration and the warmest SST during the peak of upwelling season. The deep bottom topography and the absence of barrier land prevented the generation of wind driven coastal upwelling. However, the chlorophyll-a concentration in this area had the highest correlation with the wind speed which means that the variation of chlorophyll-a concentration in this area was highly depended on the variability of wind. On the other hand, the areas with shallow bathymetry and in front of Panaitan and Java Islands had higher chlorophyll-a concentration and cooler SSTs.
