Air–Sea Interaction & Climate Variability Across the Indonesian Maritime Continent

We study how the ocean and atmosphere interact over Indonesia's equatorial maritime continent, turning observation and modeling into decision support systems (DSS) that serve the nation.

Fundamental Science

Air–Sea Interaction

Beneath the calm surface of Indonesia's equatorial waters lies a constant exchange — heat, moisture, and momentum moving between ocean and atmosphere. We study these dynamics to understand how the maritime continent shapes weather far beyond its shores.

Climate Variability

Climate Interaction

Our findings on climate variability ripple outward — from local rainfall patterns to regional flood and drought risk. Every insight deepens our understanding of a rapidly changing climate system.

From Observation to Impact

The Business Process of ASICLIVAR

Observation becomes knowledge. Knowledge becomes prediction. Prediction becomes a Decision Support System (DSS) — a transformation that turns raw atmospheric data into tools policymakers and communities can act on.
