A threshold 17 of 33.6 PSU was chosen as the proxy of high salinity as the mean salinity around the area is about 32 PSU (Schulz, 2009). A number of 21 years of high salinity [...] oceanographic fields. The Leg 1, which started from Jakarta (Indonesia) on the 26th of June, and ended in Port Louis (Mauritius) on the 16th of July was focused on the exploration of the southern Indian Ocean Gyre
