We observed the spatial pattern of physical oceanographic parameters, namely seawater turbidity and light transmission around the coastal waters of Cisadane. The observations were taken in July and November 2014 at 18 stations distributed in surrounding coastal waters of Cisadane. Water turbidity and light transmission were measured using CTD SBE 19 censor that could record simultaneously vertical profile of water turbidity and light transmission. The station’s position was determined using a GPS instrument. The results showed that seawater turbidity and light transmission exhibit two distinct spatial and temporal variation which is closely associated with the monsoonal wind system in the region.
