Abstract


This study analyzes the impact of the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) phenomenon on the variability of the thermocline layer in the waters off the western coast of Sumatra. The aim of this research is to investigate changes in the thermocline layer and the distribution of sea surface temperature (SST) during both positive and negative IOD phases over a 25-year period (1997–2021). The research employs a descriptive quantitative method. Data processing was performed using PyFerret software to analyze the distribution of SST and the horizontal spread of the thermocline layer. Ocean Data View (ODV) software was used to determine the upper and lower boundaries as well as the thickness of the thermocline. The results indicate that during positive IOD years, the average SST ranges from 28.7°C to 29.3°C, with the upper thermocline boundary at 43.29 m, the lower boundary at 128.82 m, and a thickness of 85.53 m. In contrast, during negative IOD phases, the average SST ranges from 29.2°C to 29.4°C, with the upper thermocline boundary at 60.32 m, the lower boundary at 162.83 m, and a thickness of 102.51 m. The thermocline is deeper during negative IOD phases, with relatively warmer average SSTs compared to positive IOD phases.
