Schematic representation of the mechanism responsible for the enhancement of the ITF due to the intensified precipitation in the Maritime Continent over the period of 1958–2017. (a) The linear trend of precipitation (cm yr−1 decade−1), (b) linear trends of the halosteric and thermosteric DHs (cm decade−1), and (c) linear trends of the halosteric and thermosteric components of geostrophic ITF velocity (cm s−1 decade−1) of the ensemble mean along 114°E.
