Remote Chlorophyll-a and SST to Determination of Fish Potential Area in Makassar Strait Waters Using MODIS Satellite Data

Abstract

Abstract The objective of this research was to analyze integrated geospatial data using MODIS Satellite data and field data observation to the determination of potential fish area. This study applied in Makassar Strait 118° 0’ 0” E-119° 37’ 0” E, 3°0’0” S – 4°45’0” S. The methods of this research was conducted using MODIS combine the depth of map waters survey direct interviews and people who participate in fishing activities monthly in January, February, March, April, May, and June. Data were analyzed by using software: Statistics, SeaDas, ENVI, and GIS. The result showed that the horizontal distribution of sea surface temperature (SST) spread evenly or divergent. The distribution of sea temperature in the coastal area was relatively warm in the sea around Barru and Pangkep was ranged 31 to 32 °C. Sea surface temperature dominates in the range of 30 - 31°C. SST correlation coefficient was 0.79 between MODIS and value of observation field data.
