The level of turbidity is a physical oceanographic parameter that reflects the quality of a waters. Turbidity can lead to a decrease in the level of light intensity in the waters, thus affecting the photosynthesis process of phytoplankton and consequently will affect the primary productivity of the waters. The purpose of this study was to determine the turbidity stratification and to interpret the distribution pattern of turbidity in Inner Ambon Bay waters. The study was conducted in June 2021 at 19 data collection stations. Water sampling using CTD by considering the tidal phase. The results showed that the turbidity level in IAB was quite stratified, with the highest levels of turbidity in the bottom layer and the surface layer. The dominant distribution pattern of turbidity is in the waters of Passo, Lateri, Galala, and near the mouth of the Poka-Galala threshold bay, where the distribution follows a tidal pattern. The level of turbidity is higher during the high tide phase compared to the low tide phase.
