Modern distribution of water temperature on the NWS. (a, b) Maps of the present-day sea surface temperatures (SSTs), as well as the location of important sites offshore of northwestern Australia and in the Timor Sea. Temperature data were acquired from the CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere database, representing snapshots of the austral summer (February 2015, a) and austral winter (July 2015, b) SST distribution (Hobart 2017). The approximate position of the 150 m isobath (black line) delineates the onshore region and shelf break
