Description 122-124
Eighty samples, collected during the cruises of RV Gaveshani in the Bay of Bengal from July to September 1977, have been analysed for bromide. Bromide/chlorinity ratio for the surface samples from the northern Bay (0.00321 + or - 0.00007) is significantly lower than that for the deeper layers in this region and for all the values obtained from the central and central-west Bay of Bengal (0.00343 + or - 0.00005). The latter is found to be close to the oceanic value(0.00347). This has been attributed to the immense runoff from the rivers. The riverine water is apparently poor in bromide relative to chloride.
