从1996年11月底至1998年7月初，在望加锡海峡靠近南度3度的狭窄区域内的两个系泊处进行了速度测量。1997年的平均通流为9.3 Sv，不确定度约为+/- 2.5 Sv，视乎如何考虑地面流量而定。结果表明，望加锡海峡内的通流可以解释太平洋到印度的所有跨洋运输。运输与ENSO的相关性可能高达0.73，尽管时间序列太短，无法保证这一点。其余的大部分差异可以用年周期来解释，6月最大，12月最小。在1997年5月下旬至7月期间发生强烈的季节性事件。
From late November 1996 to early July 1998 velocity measurements were made at two moorings within a constriction in Makassar Strait near 3 degrees S. The 1997 average throughflow is 9.3 Sv, with an uncertainty off about +/- 2.5 Sv depending on how the surface flow is taken into account. The results show that throughflow within Makassar Strait can account for all of the Pacific to Indian interocean transport. The correlation of transport to ENSO may be as high as 0.73, though the time series is too short to say this with assurance. Most of the remaining variance is explained by the annual cycle, with a June maximum and December minimum. A strong intra-seasonal event occurs from late May to July, 1997.
