In fishing activity, the success is indicated by the number of catches that extremely influenced by the conditions of fishing ground. Information of the potential fishing ground is needed for fishermen to increase the effectiveness and efficiency in fishing activity. Sea Surface Temperature (SST) and chlorophyll-a in waters are two things that can affect the potential of fishing ground. The research aims to create distribution map of SST and chlorophyll-a and to presume the potentials of fishing ground in Malacca Strait based on distribution of SST and chlorophyll-a in Malacca Strait (2015-2019). The data of SST and chlorophyll-a distribution in Malacca Strait were using Aqua MODIS satellite imagery. Based on the result of SST and chlorophyll-a analysis, potential fishing ground in Malacca Strait is expected located around East Aceh in Western season, Malaysian waters in the Transition I season, between Asahan and Malaysian waters in Eastern season and between Deli Serdang and East Aceh in the Transition II season. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
