摘要
The objective of this study is to model the mean and seasonal mass transport of the Pacific to Indian Ocean throughflow using variable-grid global Ocean General Circulation Model (OGCM) with fine grid (1 degrees/6) covering the area from 20 S to 60 degrees N and from 98 E to 156 E. The computations show that Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) mass transport, computed as a sum of through-strait transport, has maximum transport in Sept. (17. 5Sv) and minimum transport in Jan. (9. 5Sv). The annual mean ITF transport amounts to 14. 5Sv. Twenty-two percent of this transport passes through Lombok Strait. Sixty-five percent of this transport passes through Timor Passage. Semi-annual variability is apparent in Lombok and Ombai Straits while annual variability is apparent in Timor Passage.
