Monsoon climate is the main factor governing the characteristics of the Java Sea waters. Seasonal water exchange with the Flores Sea determines the distribution pattern of abundance and occurrence of the pelagic fishes. Groups of oceanic and neritic species enter the Java Sea, following higher salinity waters coming from the eastern archipelago, in the young stage, while a group of coastal ones tends to stay in the Java Sea during the year. Interannual variability, as indicated by the oscillation of the rainfall, could be an important external factor controlling long term variability of the abundance of pelagic fishes in the Java Sea.
