Abstract

Sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll-a are critical factors for determining oceanographic conditions in water bodies. This research aims to analyze the spatial and temporal distribution of these parameters in the waters of the Merauke region using remote sensing technology. Descriptive methods and remote sensing techniques were used to collect and analyze data from Aqua-MODIS satellite images from December 2022 to February 2023. The results indicate that the waters of Merauke Regency are fertile and warm, with the highest surface temperature recorded in December 2022 (25.0 - 30.0 Celsius). C) and the lowest in January 2023 (25.0 – 28.0 degrees Celsius). Chlorophyll-a concentrations peaked in December 2022 (0.26-5 mg/m3) and were lowest in February 2023 (0.2-2 mg/m3). These results provide valuable insights for fisheries management and environmental monitoring, aiding in the sustainable use of marine.
