Abstract

The north of West Papua and the Halmahera Sea is the inflow area of the eastern part of Indonesian Throughflow (ITF). The Nusa Manggala leg-3 expedition in 2018 was held on December 6-16 2018. The survey achieved twenty-six Conductivity Temperature Depth measurement points. The results of this study prove that Pacific Surface Water is present on the surface up to 70 m with a temperature of 26-30oC. South Pacific Subtropical Water and South Pacific Intermediate Water are simultaneously 70 m - 250 m and 250 m - 1000 m. The temperature at the spatial distance between 29.25 in the round around Sorong to 30.75oC in the southern part of the Gulf of Veda. Meanwhile, the highest salinity value was 34.25 psu in the vicinity of the Weda Bay and the lowest was 33.55 psu around Sorong.
