IN TROUBLED WATERS
SINGULARITY LITTLE seems to be written these days about the Indian Ocean. The thought occurred to me, yet again, on running my eye down the contents page of the latest issue of Strategic Survey (1985-86), just published by the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies (of which I am a long-standing but dormant member).

Pathways and Effects of the Indonesian Throughflow Water in the Indian Ocean Using Particle Trajectory and Tracers in an OGCM
Journal of Climate
; ABSTRACT The 3D pathways of the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) in the Indian Ocean are identified using an OGCM, with a combined set of tools: 1) Lagrangian particle trajectories, 2) passive tracers, and 3) active tracers (temperature and salinity). Each of these tools has its own advantages and
