Током последњег леденог доба Тиморско море је заједно са Карпентаријским заливом и Торесовим пролазом чинило велику равницу која је повезивала Аустралију и Нову Гвинеју формирајући континент Сахул, што је олакшало миграцију људи из Азије у Аустралију.

The Arafura Sea is bordered by the [[Gulf of Carpentaria]] and the continent of [[Australia]] to the south, the [[Timor Sea]] to the west, the [[Banda Sea|Banda]] and [[Seram Sea|Seram]] seas to the northwest, and the [[Torres Strait]] to the east. (Just across the strait, farther to the east, lies the [[Coral Sea]]). The Arafura Sea is {{convert|1,290|km|mi}} long and {{convert|560|km|mi}} wide. The depth of the sea is 50–80 m in most places, with the depth increasing to the west.

The sea lies over the Arafura Shelf, which is a section of the [[Sahul Shelf]]. When [[sea level]]s were low during the last [[glacial maximum]], the Arafura Shelf, the Gulf of Carpentaria and the Torres Strait formed a large, flat, [[land bridge]] that connected Australia and New Guinea and eased the migration of humans from [[Asia]] into Australia. The combined landmass formed the continent of [[Sahul continent|Sahul]].<ref>{{cite book |last1=O'Connor |first1=Sue |last2=Hiscock |first2=Peter |chapter=The people of Sahul and near Oceania |chapter-url=https://books.google.com/books?id=JZRODwAAQBAJ&q=prehistoric+continent+sahul |editor-last1=Cochrane |editor-first1=Ethan E. |editor-last2=Hunt |editor-first2=Terry L. |date=2018 |title=The Oxford Handbook of Prehistoric Oceania |location=New York |publisher=Oxford University Press |pages=26–45 |isbn=978-0-19-992507-0}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last=Oliver |first=Douglas L. |date=1961 |title=The Pacific Islands |location=New York |publisher=The American Museum of Natural History }}</ref><ref>{{cite magazine |last=Thomas |first=Nicholas |author-link1=Nicholas Thomas (anthropologist) |date=June 2021 |title=From Sunda to Sahul: the first crossings and early settlement of the Pacific |url=https://www.naturalhistorymag.com/features/113822/from-sunda-to-sahul |magazine=[[Natural History (magazine)|Natural History]] |location=Research Triangle Park |publisher=Natural History Magazine, Inc. |issn=0028-0712 |access-date=7 January 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last1=White |first1=J.

European use of the name "Arafura Sea" dates back to at least 1663, when Joan Blaeu recorded in the text on his wall map of the East Indies ("Archipelagus Orientalis, sive Asiaticus") that the inland inhabitants of the Moluccas call themselves "Alfores".<ref>[[Joan Blaeu]] [http://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-232510007/view Archipelagus Orientalis, sive Asiaticus Apud Ioannem Blaeu] Published: Amsterdam Apud Joannem Blaeu, 1663</ref>

The name also appeared in [[George Windsor Earl]]'s 1837 ''Sailing Directions for the Arafura Sea'', which he compiled from the narratives of Lieutenants Kolff and Modera of the [[Royal Netherlands Navy]].<ref name=earl>{{cite web|last=Earl|first=George Windsor|title=Sailing directions for the Arafura Sea|url=http://nla.gov.au/anbd.bib-an3305744|publisher=Hydrographic Office, London |author2=Kolff, D. H. |author3=Modera, Justin|year=1837}}</ref>

Although it has been suggested that Arafura derives from the Portuguese word "Alfours", meaning "free men", it seems more likely that sea is named after the Harrafora, the indigenous name for "the people of mountains" in the Moluccas (part of Indonesia), which was the explanation recorded by Lieutenants Kolff and Modera in the 1830s.<ref name=earl />

Thomas Forrest sailed through the Moluccas ([[Maluku Islands]]) in 1775, and documented that there were people who called themselves the "Harafora" living in the western end of New Guinea, in subordination to the "Papuas". He also reported their presence in Magindano ([[Mindanao]]).<ref>Captain Thomas Forrest, ''A Voyage to New Guinea, and the Moluccas, from Balambangan: &c.'' (Dublin, 1779).</ref> The geographer [[Conrad Malte-Brun]] repeated Forrest's reports of a race of "Haraforas" in 1804,<ref>Edme Mentelle & Malte Brun, ''Géographie mathématique, physique et politique de toutes les parties du monde, &c.,'' vol. XII (Paris, Henry Tardieu & Laporte, 1804), pages 400, 597.</ref> and added Borneo to the list of places this group inhabited.<ref>M. Malte-Brun, ''Universal Geography, or a Description of All the Parts of the World on a New Plan, &c.,'' vol. III (Edinburgh, Adam Black, 1822).</ref> The ethnologist James C. Prichard described the Haraforas as head-hunters.<ref>James Clowes Prichard, ''Researches into the Physical History of Man'' (London, J. & A. Arch, 1813), page 307.</ref> John Coulter, in his account of a sojourn in the interior of south-west New Guinea in 1835,<ref>John Coulter, M.D., ''Adventures on the Western Coast of South America and the Interior of California: including a narrative of incidents at the Kingsmill Islands, New Ireland, New Britain, New Guinea, and other islands in the Pacific Ocean; &c.'', vol. II (London, Longmans, 1847), chapters 11—16.</ref> referred to the tribespeople there as the "Horrafora", and had the impression that Papuans and Horraforans were two distinct groups in New Guinea.

AJ van der Aa's 1939 Toponymic Dictionary, recently rediscovered in the Dutch National Archives, has this explanation for the name of the sea: "The inhabitants of the [[Moluccas]] called themselves 'haraforas', translating 'Anak anak gunung' as 'children of the mountains'."

The Arafura Sea is a rich fishery resource, particularly for shrimp and [[demersal]] fish. Economically important species include [[Barramundi]], [[grouper]], [[Penaeidae|Penaeid]] shrimp, and [[Nemipteridae]] fishes, among others.

At a time when many marine ecosystems and fish stocks around the world are diminished or collapsing, the Arafura Sea stands out as among the richest marine fisheries on Earth.<ref>[https://www.researchgate.net/publication/256375564_Biophysical_Profile_of_the_Arafura_and_Timor_Seas Biophysical Profile of the Arafura and Timor Seas.]</ref> However, the natural resources of the Arafura have been under increased pressure from [[illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing]] activities.<ref>World Wildlife Fund. "[http://www.panda.org/about_wwf/what_we_do/marine/problems/problems_fishing/illegal_fishing/index.cfm Fishing problems: Illegal fishing]" {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080411060604/http://www.panda.org/about_wwf/what_we_do/marine/problems/problems_fishing/illegal_fishing/index.cfm |date=2008-04-11 }}</ref>

The Arafura and Timor Seas Expert Forum (ATSEF) was established in 2002 to promote the economically and environmentally sustainable management of those seas.<ref>[https://www.millenniumassessment.org/en/SGA.Arafura.html Arafura and Timor Seas Expert Forum (ATSEF)]</ref><ref>{{Cite web |url=http://ctknetwork.coraltriangleinitiative.org/programs-projects/the-arafura-and-timor-seas-ecosystem-action-program-atsea/ |title=The Arafura and Timor Seas Ecosystem Action Program (ATSEA) |access-date=2018-08-23 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180823210353/http://ctknetwork.coraltriangleinitiative.org/programs-projects/the-arafura-and-timor-seas-ecosystem-action-program-atsea/ |archive-date=2018-08-23 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

Географија

The Arafura Sea is bordered by the Gulf of Carpentaria and the continent of Australia to the south, the Timor Sea to the west, the Banda and Seram seas to the northwest, and the Torres Strait to the east. (Just across the strait, farther to the east, lies the Coral Sea). The Arafura Sea is 1,290 km (0,802 mi) long and 560 km (350 mi) wide. The depth of the sea is 50–80 m in most places, with the depth increasing to the west.

The sea lies over the Arafura Shelf, which is a section of the Sahul Shelf. When sea levels were low during the last glacial maximum, the Arafura Shelf, the Gulf of Carpentaria and the Torres Strait formed a large, flat, land bridge that connected Australia and New Guinea and eased the migration of humans from Asia into Australia. The combined landmass formed the continent of Sahul.[3][4][5][6]

Borang, the Northern point of Noehoe Tjoet [Kai Besar] (5° 17′ S 133° 09′ E / 5.283° Ј; 133.150° И / -5.283; 133.150)] and the Eastern limit of the Banda Sea [From Tg Borang, the Northern point of Noehoe Tjoet, through this island to its Southern point, thence a line to the Northeast point of Fordata, through this island and across to the Northeast point of Larat, Tanimbar Islands (7° 06′ S 131° 55′ E / 7.100° Ј; 131.917° И / -7.100; 131.917), down the East coast of Jamdena [Yamdena] Island to its Southern point, thence through Anggarmasa to the North point of Selaroe and through this island to Tg Aro Oesoe its Southern point (8° 21′ S 130° 45′ E / 8.350° Ј; 130.750° И / -8.350; 130.750)].

On the East. The Southwest coast of New Guinea from Karoefa (133°27'E) to the entrance to the Bensbak River (141°01'E), and thence a line to the Northwest extreme of York Peninsula, Australia (11° 05′ S 142° 03′ E / 11.083° Ј; 142.050° И / -11.083; 142.050).

On the South. By the North coast of Australia from the Northwest extreme of York Peninsula to Cape Don (11° 19′ S 131° 46′ E / 11.317° Ј; 131.767° И / -11.317; 131.767).

On the West. A line from Cape Don to Tanjong Aro Oesoe, the Southern point of Selaroe (Tanimbar Islands).

European use of the name "Arafura Sea" dates back to at least 1663, when Joan Blaeu recorded in the text on his wall map of the East Indies ("Archipelagus Orientalis, sive Asiaticus") that the inland inhabitants of the Moluccas call themselves "Alfores".[8]

The name also appeared in George Windsor Earl's 1837 Sailing Directions for the Arafura Sea, which he compiled from the narratives of Lieutenants Kolff and Modera of the Royal Netherlands Navy.[9]

Although it has been suggested that Arafura derives from the Portuguese word "Alfours", meaning "free men", it seems more likely that sea is named after the Harrafora, the indigenous name for "the people of mountains" in the Moluccas (part of Indonesia), which was the explanation recorded by Lieutenants Kolff and Modera in the 1830s.[9]

Thomas Forrest sailed through the Moluccas (Maluku Islands) in 1775, and documented that there were people who called themselves the "Harafora" living in the western end of New Guinea, in subordination to the "Papuas". He also reported their presence in Magindano (Mindanao).[10] The geographer Conrad Malte-Brun repeated Forrest's reports of a race of "Haraforas" in 1804,[11] and added Borneo to the list of places this group inhabited.[12] The ethnologist James C. Prichard described the Haraforas as head-hunters.[13] John Coulter, in his account of a sojourn in the interior of south-west New Guinea in 1835,[14] referred to the tribespeople there as the "Horrafora", and had the impression that Papuans and Horraforans were two distinct groups in New Guinea.

AJ van der Aa's 1939 Toponymic Dictionary, recently rediscovered in the Dutch National Archives, has this explanation for the name of the sea: "The inhabitants of the Moluccas called themselves 'haraforas', translating 'Anak anak gunung' as 'children of the mountains'."

The Arafura Sea is a rich fishery resource, particularly for shrimp and demersal fish. Economically important species include Barramundi, grouper, Penaeid shrimp, and Nemipteridae fishes, among others.

At a time when many marine ecosystems and fish stocks around the world are diminished or collapsing, the Arafura Sea stands out as among the richest marine fisheries on Earth.[15] However, the natural resources of the Arafura have been under increased pressure from illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing activities.[16]

The Arafura and Timor Seas Expert Forum (ATSEF) was established in 2002 to promote the economically and environmentally sustainable management of those seas.[17][18]
