Abstract

Tropical cyclones (TC) can cause damage when they are on the land surface, but on the other hand TC contribute to ocean productivity through upwelling or downwelling when they pass through the ocean. Information of the location and timing of upwelling and downwelling is important for fishing - activities estimation. High chlorophyll-a concentrations and low sea surface temperatures are proxies for upwelling events in the ocean. This study aims to investigate the effects of the TC Marcus on the chlorophyll-a distribution in the Timor Sea using a combination of remotely sensed data from Aqua MODIS chlorophyll-a and ocean-atmosphere reanalysis outputs. The results showed that wind speed, sea surface temperature, salinity, and ocean currents were increased during the TC Marcus event. Spatial analysis reveals that the concentration of chlorophyll-a is high in the waters of the Timor Sea, at coordinates around 12°–13° S and 125°–129° E. High chlorophyll-a concentrations occurred before and after TC Marcus event, according to temporal analysis. The distribution of chlorophyll-a concentrations decreased on March 17–24, 2018, during the occurrence of the TC Marcus in the Timor Sea.
