Abstract
Abstract Fishery production in Indonesia is still relatively high, dominated by the marine capture fisheries. Oceanographic dynamics can affect the high and low levels of marine fishery production. Sea surface temperature and chlorophyll-a are oceanographic parameters that are often used as indicators for determining fishing areas, especially pelagic fish which are associated with ocean fertility. This study aims to identify the effect of chlorophyll-a and sea surface temperature (SST) on the production of fish catches in Indonesia: 2018. Data on marine capture fisheries production (skipjack, mackerel tuna, tuna and shrimp) in 2018 were obtained from the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries (KKP). Data of Chlorophyll-a and sea surface temperature (SST) are satellite observations from Marine Copernicus. The relationship between chlorophyll-a and sea surface temperature (SST) with marine capture fisheries production was analyzed using logistic regression analysis. The results showed that chlorophyll-a significantly affected the yield of skipjack and tuna in Indonesia with coefficients of -5.7066 and -4.3760, respectively. A higher concentration of chlorophyll-a had the possibility to produce high fish production of 0.0033 times than an area with a lower concentration of chlorophyll-a.
