between Jakarta and Cirebon| The present paper presents a
description of the oceanographical features of the coastal zone
between Jakarta and Cirebon. From the outset it has to be stated
that the paper is not intended to be an exhaustive source of
information concerning the oceanography of this region. Rather

chemical, biological, and geological parameters that describe
its oceanographical features. Research has been done on the
coastal and land geology of the area, but not much has been done
on its marine physics, chemistry, and biology. Therefore of
necessity the present report contains mostly inferences and
interpolations drawn from the oceanographical knowledge
available on the adjacent areas, specifically the Java Sea and
Jakarta Bay. The paper consists of three section
