Description Data collected by the earlier cruises of Dana Expedi
tion, RV Vityaz, International Indian Ocean Expedition,
INS Krishna and others on various hydrological para
meters pertained to the deeper waters off the Andaman
and Nicobar Islands. Further, the observations were
mostly restricted to pre-monsoon season. Literature
on hydrology of the coastal waters of Andaman and
Nicobar Islands is very meagre. Sewell (1928, 1929)
observed the pattern of temperature and salinity of the
coastal waters of the Andaman Sea. Rangarajan and
Marichamy (1972), based on their study during 1964-70
at Port Blair, correlated the seasonal changes of the
marine environment with local meteorological condi
tions. Garg et al. (1968) reported that the concentra
tion of oxygen-poor layer was greater in the Andaman
Sea than in the Bay of Bengal suggesting a northerly
flow at these depths. Kabanova (1964), during the
33rd cruise of Vityaz, concluded that the low values of
primary production were due to the deficiency of nutrient
salts.
