Abstract: Sea surface temperatures can change at any time due to several things, namely seasons and climate change. Makassar Strait waters which are located on the equator get 4 seasonal influences. Sea surface temperature Is one of the main indicators that can affect photosynthesis, directly and indirectly, thus affecting the abundance of aquatic organisms. Sea surface temperature is one of the parameters that can predict fish resources, one of which is flyfish. Indian Scad Fish are stenohaline organisms, so a slight change in sea surface temperature can change the distribution of the fish.
